Bin Laden: Goofus and Gallant

A brief reminder, for the youthful and confused.

Goofus lets over 3,000 Americans get killed and launches two irrelevant wars, while adopting a "live and let live" policy toward the actual culprit, saying so only 6 months after 9/11. But using the fear of his still being there to make all his opposition quiet.



Gallant has the motherfucker killed.


And rightfully reminds us of it. Not crowing, but reminding, and he has every right. But the people who brought us "Mission Accomplished" banners have the nerve to say it's wrong for him to do so. Or even try to take credit. The people who said in 2004 that we'd get hit again if we voted them out now think it's wrong to use such things politically.



The same people who would be reminding us every minute of every day they killed Bin Laden, if they'd ever even intended to do so, which they did not.

Pure comedy.



And then Mitt Romney says any president would have made the same decision. Well, two things: one, this one did. Two, why didn't yours? Not a single person on earth was arguing for mercy for Bin Laden. No one.

But had they killed him, they would have had to work harder for an excuse for the wars they actually wanted to fight.

Live with it, GOP. You failed. Actually, you didn't even try. Just shut up.
