That rubbed me the wrong way too. We criticize other nations for being wackos for taking to the street when someone dies, it just seems we're no better if we do the same.
The only "celebrations" I saw were groups of college-aged kids congregating at ~midnight. College aged kids will use any excuse to congregate, yell, and party.
I always celebrate the death of human filth. I'm not dancing in the streets, but I am celebrating the death of OBL.
Woo hoo! The Dodgers just won it all...let's tip over a cop car and loot the appliance store!
my daughter was in the flash mob at the white house. I thought it was pretty cool. :unitedstates:
Are they going to run that again? though I'm not sure I could watch that never ending smackdown again.I am PISSED that I missed the ending of Celebrity Apprentice. Freakin' Obama didn't announce it until an hour later anyway.
I think that the coverage was overblown. I'd have been happy with a scrolling banner at the bottom of the screen that gave the news, then go live to the President as he makes the announcement. To spend an hour listening to correspondents babble about the same crap before Obama got on there was rediculous.
I think its great we got him, and I heard the mission went without incident to our troops, if so, THAT ROCKS.
U.S.A. ! U.S.A. ! U.S.A. !
But still pissed I missed the ending of the Apprentice. Will try to find a webcast of it this evening. (I'm thinking that Hope, the Playboy playmate went home)
I thought the celebration was too much. A sigh of relief, a moment of reflection of all the pain and suffering at the hands of osama ok, but celebration goes to far IMO.
WHy not just build him a tomb out of radioactive waste? Then all of the crazzies would have gone to visit?
Thought I had put a disclaimer that I saw today and can't take credit for. Just thought it summed up my feelings fairly accurately.
