May 2, 2011 - Osama and Saddam have Lunch ...in Hell

There is no PET PEEVE MONDAY (PPM) this week.

Yesterday was a historic day for the U.S. We finally found and killed Osama Bin Laden.

He died like the coward he was, hiding behind his wife in a hail of bullets from US Navy Seals.

President Obama gave an eloquent and patriotic speech detailing the mission. If I was "peeved" it was in the fact that Obama used the word "I" and "My" words a bit much. He did not thank the Bush Administration for their efforts.It came to light today that the event would have not occurred without the intelligence that was gained during the Bush Years at Gitmo using Enhanced Interrogation Techniques. These were all of the things that Obama campaigned against.

Obama will undoubtedly receive a bump in the polls because of his "Presidential" decisions during the take-out of Osama. He should.

But be careful. Bush 41 was polling at 91% during Gulf War 1 and Bush 43 was "unbeatable" after 9/11.

The electorate is quite fickle. The killing of Osama will do nothing about $4 gas and 9% unemployment. The 2012 election is a LOOOONNNNGGG way off.

Strap yourself in.
