So, on Sunday night, a bunch of my friend's were at my house watching Dinner for Schmucks. About half way through, Cagney got a text from someone about Osama Bin Laden. His first thought was to text his recruiter to make sure he still had a job...
Unfortunately, he does. There's always gonna be someone out there willing and ready to take Bin Laden's place. Our troops are always going to have a job somewhere to do. However, I think that the death of Bin Laden helped bring closure to the families who have lost loved ones because of his actions, marking the victory for America.
“I congratulated him and the men and women of our military and intelligence communities who devoted their lives to this mission. They have our everlasting gratitude...The fight against terror goes on, but tonight America has sent an unmistakable message: No matter how long it takes, justice will be done.”
George Bush
True, true, but for every leader that takes his place there are a hundred soldiers willing to fight. I'm really glad you chose to write your blog over this, it's not comedic or fictional, it's the truth. And it couldn't have come at a better time.
