Well, that didn't take long. Of course, Pete Stark of CA doesn't speak for democrats as a whole, but he seems to think the whole thing was orchestrated to divert attention from certain problems.

^Almost as predictable as some on the Right proclaiming this clown's death is the greatest thing since George W Bush invented democracy.


Yawn. I'll pop the champagne when word reaches us that Bin Laden has died - peacefully, in his sleep - of old age.

I watched the Berg beheading footage. (I shouldn't have.) Here is a quote from Mr. Berg, the vicitim's father:

O'BRIEN: No, no. And we have spoken before, and I'm well aware of that. But at some point, one would think, is there a moment when you say, 'I'm glad he's dead, the man who killed my son'?

BERG: No. How can a human being be glad that another human being is dead?

This is how I feel today.

"How can a human being be glad that another human being is dead?"

It's a good question.

I think this is very wise. If every human being on earth had this attitude, we wouldn't be in this crappy state.
