Osama's dead. Seems we killed Walter Mitty.

I'm still glad he's dead and would have pulled the trigger myself.

It is so entertaining to see so many fantasy murderers on DU these days.

5. Wow! You are so brave to admit that you support Osama.

Kudos. I don't agree with you but I will support your right to do so.

Everyone all aboard the silly train, express to goofytown.

No stops.

How does it feel being reduced to misappropriating your own exceptionally silly, unpopular position onto other people---- as your only defense?

3. Could you find the pictures of the emaciated, sick, dying, & dead Iraqi children during the Clinton

Edited on Sun May-08-11 01:26 AM by Luminous Animal

years? 500,000 of them died. Madeleine Albright said it was worth it.

Real nice guy. A great humanitarian.

9. Thank you for remembering Albright's disgusting and brutal

remark. I do think she later apologized for it. Of course, her apology begs the question of whether she apologized only because she was caught and not because of any real remorse. Realpolitikers like her usually do think the deaths of 500,000 children are worth it if they can emasculate an erstwhile ally.

Thank you, though, for not letting it vanish down the memory hole.

10. I'll never forget. I actually became dizzy with the impact of callousness

I worked really hard with other activists to publicize this atrocity while it was happening but, similar to now, liberals, who had previously protested Bush Sr's invasion of Iraq, no longer seemed to care.

14. Bush Sr. didn't invade Iraq, remember?

And I'm sorry, despite whatever claims have been made by whoever as to the effect of UN sanctions on Iraq, it is absolutely asinine to try to make a moral equivalence between those UN sanctions and deliberately flying airplanes full of people into skyscrapers.

11. Mitty was a character whose exploits were fantasy

He was a sweet man with an over active fantasy life. I do not agree with the idea that bin Laden equals Walter Mitty.

13. It's common knowledge that those who support legal and trial

remedies in dealing with terrorists when possible by default support and coddle them.
