From a fellow BCer:
Osama bin Laden's headstone
---
Online headline: "'Is This What Justice Looks Like?' * Killing 'godfather of terror was political' * Was Killing of bin Laden Legal? -- Ooops, my bad. Thought the main DUMB&DUMBERats had already turned on Emperor Scarlet O'Bama like they did on President Bush 43 a few day after 9/11.
---
Online headline: "Obama's Fraud Squad Targets Record Oil Price Plunge" -- Ooops, my bad again. Thought Pete, Linc and Julie were hired to reviving their show of the 60s/70s.
---
So Rashard Mendenhall thinks we shouldn't be elated at the death of Osama bin Laden. Champion just ended its contract with him over this, and it would be very appropriate for the Pittsburgh Steelers to decide to retire his number 34 jersey and pack him off to Pakistan.
---
L-E story: "A large crowd of Kiwanians, parents, and school officials gathered at the Columbus Convention & Trade Center May 3 as the Kiwanis Club of Columbus recognized 12 outstanding middle school students at the 17th annual T. Hiram Stanley Scholarship Awards Luncheon. " -- Unfortunately, the L-E only mentioned the name/school of only 1 of the 12; what a missed opportunity to praise, encourage, and reward young scholars.

As the school year comes to an end, soon would be a good time for the MCSD to publish a list of the SPLOST projects that need to be scrapped due to lower expected revenues. There's likely going to be a minimum $50,000,000.00 shortfall from the original projection.

L-E headline/story: "Raid reveals stealth helicopters By ROBERT BURNS AP National Security Writer * WASHINGTON — Secret until now, stealth helicopters may have been key to the success of the Osama bin Laden raid. But the so-far-unexplained crash of one of the modified Black Hawks at the scene apparently compromised at least some of the aircraft’s secrets." -- What an asinine idea! The very idea that anything was as (or more) important than the skills, bravery, and courage if the Navy SEALs is testament to how self-important the media has become.
---
From L-E story: "Vice President Joe Biden joined Obama in a briefing and in thanking the members of the mission behind closed doors. He emerged to the broader audience of troops and put it bluntly: “We just spent time with the assaulters who got bin Laden.” -- "Assaulters"? How about heroes or freedom fighters or patriotic Americans, but noooo, our VPOTUS calls these men "assaulters". Next week, to appease certain political supporters, Biden may call for their court martial!

L-E story: "EDINBURGH, Scotland — The Scottish National Party won a majority of seats in Scotland’s parliament and promised Friday to hold a vote on independence, while the Liberal Democrats suffered an enormous defeat in Britain, losing more than 600 local seats. " -- The tsunami of 2010 in America is sweeping across the ocean!
---
L-E headline: "Haas ahead of Mickelson by 1" -- True, BUT Haas isn't the leader.... Mickelson trails Perez by 2.
---
L-E headline: "ANALYSIS: THE DEATH OF BIN LADEN * Is it OK to cheer a death? " -- Ohhhh.... like there wasn't world wide Muslim cheering at the news that the Twin Towers were destroyed? While there is no joy involved, there is satisfaction/relief that the king of all cockroaches has been squashed (assuming Emperor Scarlet O'Bama can tell the truth...SHOW US THE PICTURES!).
