Steve ... its the typical propaganda report that Bush/Obama always puts out a month before an election.
You are supposed to think we are winning the war, and therefore happily vote to have all of your tax money used for more wars. Obviously, its more important to feel good while reading such a story than it is to have a job. So, go vote for more of the same.
The face may have changed from cowboy to african-american, but the propaganda remains the same. They still crank-it-out on schedule like clockwork.
At least they make the propaganda run on time. Since we don’t have trains anymore, and since no one can ever make an airline run on time, I guess that’s all they got to offer these days.

Somewhere there should be a website counting how many ‘senior leaders’ we’ve killed. Shouldn’t we have a party when this reaches 10,000 or so?
Although, from the wording of the propaganda, I guess this guy wasn’t as senior as the many, many “number-two’s” and “number-three’s” we’ve killed in Al-Qaida. What does ‘senior-leader’ translate from propaganda-speach? Maybe “number 37 in Al-Qaida in charge of wiping the dust off the jeep”?
But oh yeah, I’m sure we got a bunch of women and children. We never miss them. God bless America.

All Al Qaeda are senior leaders.
Needles in haystacks.

News release from the Pentagon:
“We can’t confirm that we killed the al Qaeda guy, but there’s no doubt whatsoever we got a bunch of women and children.”
Happy Steve?
