When You Kill a King, You Do It in Front of Everybody.

Look, I was kidding about displaying Bin Laden's corpse to the four corners of the realm. We didn't need to mount his head on the Pentagon. But burial at sea without showing that we have the body? That's just dumb. That throws away all the propaganda value of killing him.

And handled with accordance to Islamic tradition and practice? WHY? Who that would be offended by our killing him could possibly be mollified by that? Again, not that we had to piss on it or bury it face down in a vat of pig's blood, but seriously? What do we gain by that?

Just when I was prepared to give Obama a thumb's up, too.

On the other hand, the claim that he was hiding behind women? Only to be expected. But now our enemies won't believe us.
