Due to the world news about Osama bin Laden’s death, there are a LOT of responses…I just had to hijack a few from my own Facebook News Feed to show how blessed we are to show so many different feelings about one event…from pro-Obama to still-against-Obama to anger to happiness to pride to humor and back full circle…ENJOY!
“Does anyone else find it suspicious that the President made the Osama announcement during the last few minutes of Celebrity Apprentice?”
“God Bless America and the brave sons and daughters who protect our country”
“Finally a little bit of closure for the victims’ families of 9/11. Thank you to our troops and President Obama!”
“I wonder if Donald Trump will insist on a death certificate.”
“He was a terrible, horrible, disgusting tyrant who killed more than we’ll ever know about…but I’m still having a really hard time seeing the celebration over a human being’s death.”
“I think he should have just said ‘Hey Osama, welcome to Deadville. Population: You.'”
“Or…’Hey bitches, while you were scrutinizing my birth certificate I was getting shit done.'”
“I refuse to believe until Karzai releases the long form death certificate.”
“And Obama wanted to pull troops out when he was elected! Glad he lost that battle, yet I’m sad for those who lost loves ones during these last 10 years.”
“I think I will go find my CD of ‘Courtesy of the Red White and Blue'”
“Right now Toby Keith is trying to figure out what all rhymes with ‘Navy Seals’ and ‘Abbottabad.'”
“Sure it’s 11pm on a Sunday…but c’mon and pull it together, speech writers!”
“Wonderful speech. Feeling renergized.”
“Terrorists your game is through… now you have to answer to.. AMERICA!”
“I am thrilled to hear this news, but I want to see proof as we did when Sadaam and his two sons were killed. THAT would be closure.”
“In shock but so happy!!”
“Now I lay me down to sleep, one less terrorist this world does keep. With all my heart I give my thanks, to those in uniform regardless of ranks. You serve our country and serve it well, with humble hearts your stories tell. So as I rest my weary eyes, while freedom rings our flag still flies. You give your all, do what you must…with God we live and God we trust. Amen!”
“Thinking of my Air Force brother and his wife.”
And there’s always a virus threat…
“SHARING:….PLEASE READ; WARNING: there is a video circulating around Facebook of a BBC video of the killing of Osama Bin Laden, supposedly made by US troops. It IS a virus!!!!! Spread the news because it’s circulating fast!!!”
This is great. I saw one about Trump demanding a death certificate too and thought it was pretty funny, no matter what your politics.
I’m guilty of quite a few of those being my posts 😉 Nonetheless, amusing!
I loved the first about interrupting Celebrity Apprentice! My favorite was posted today…
I mourn the loss of thousands of precious lives, but I will not rejoice in the death of one, not even an enemy. Returning hate for hate multiplies hate, adding deeper darkness to a night already devoid of stars. Darkness cannot drive out darkness: only light can do that. Hate cannot drive out hate: only love can do that.”
