So President Obama has said that the reason we were respectful of Osama’s remains is that that it what makes us different from the terrorists. Other things that make us different from terrorists:
* Our haircuts.
* Our ironic t-shirts.
* The number of reality shows we watch.
* Our average per-year consumption of Doritos.
* How we don’t target innocent civilians for murder.
So, you know, bunch of stuff that makes us different — which is good because I wouldn’t want someone to be like, “Hey, you’re a lot like a terrorist!” Because we’re not; we throw people in the sea. Respectfully.
Not everyone gets this, though. Fidel Castro criticized how we killed bin Laden, which got me thinking that here is another guy who could really use our respectful handling of his remains. Actually, I hope that will now be a common foreign policy tool of ours — two shots to the head and chuck ’em the sea. Simple. Effective. And most of all, respectful. We should come up with a shorthand for that — I’m thinking we call it a “standard greeting.” What would you call it?
So anyone watch the Republican debate last night? I didn’t because I don’t really like watching people talking — I dunno, people talking just annoys me for some reason — but what I’m hearing is that even though T-Paw was considered the only viable candidate in attendance, Herman Cain kind of ran away with it. And I guess Ron Paul wasn’t even crazy enough to be worth mentioning; what the point of him, then?
I equipped my fantasy baseball team with a +1 bat.
I guess we’d make the same sort of mistakes if we had a President Hitner during the fall of Nazi Germany.
Shoot ’em twice in the head and chuck ’em in the sea – that’s a foreign policy I can get behind.
I watched that show The Voice, and my main observation from it is that Cee Lo Green has weird little baby hands. I feel bad pointing it out, but he’s rich enough to afford hand-enlargement surgery.
Since Herman Cain is black, shouldn’t the Republican audience have hated him and asked for his birth certificate?
I don’t know much about Geronimo except that he was apparently a lot like Osama… and I assume he tended to jump from great heights.
