1. I haven't seen a lot of RWers saying he shouldn't have been killed.

Mostly I see RWers wanting to give bush and his gang credit for loading the gun.

4. Agreed. Most of the far-right is pretty stoked that he was killed. (nt)

2. Not sure how many are saying this, but no surprise that when Obama says

"Up", Republicans say "Down" - even if it reverses their position on an issue. He can steer them right into a wall since they do this so often.

3. They are not being progressive

They wanted him captured so he could be tortured at a secret prison.

5. They are pathetic

I remember republicans doing similar with Clinton when he went after Saddam Hussein with the no fly zone. Suddenly Saddam wasn't such a bad guy because a Dem was in office. They have no honor or shame. They have no integrity.

6. Where is their patriotism?

It's our turn to tell them how unpatriotic they are. :patriot:

7. Republicans are not turning "progressive" on Bin Laden.

They are simply taking whatever position they believe is against President Obama out of spite and envy, nothing more, nothing less and trying to make it seem as though Bush and his team and their policies (i.e. enhanced interrogation) actually had *something* (or a lot) to do with President Obama finally nailing OBL.
