Is it any surprise that the CIA has disbanded the unit that is hunting for Osama bin Laden? After all, he's Bush's buddy. The Bush's and the bin Laden families are business partners in the Carlyle Group. Osama appeared on television 3 days before the election to help Bush win a second term. And after 9-11 the only plane in the air after the attack was a plane taking the bin Laden family back to Saudi Arabia. Osama is the Republican's boogie man and they pull him out every time they take away more of our freedoms. The "war on terrorism" is a fraud. If we aren't going after bin Laden then we aren't going after terrorism.
Or is this an elaborate hoax? This guy has enough money and connections to fake his death as a way to get out of prison. Lets watch and see if there's anything funny at the funeral. I think that he's living on Bush's ranch with Osama bin Laden.
I wish I weren't an Atheist today because Ken Lay died. If I weren't an Atheist I could have the satisfaction of believing he was in Hell right now paying for all the hell he caused in this world. but unfortunately he got away with it. I was looking forward to him spending some time in prison.

Fortunately for the world North Korea's missile test was a failure. The problem however is that the United States is powerless to do anything about it. In the past America was a trusted nation in the world community that had the power to bring nations together and create a unified world consensus as to what to do about the world's crazy leaders. But that is no longer the case. America no longer has a trusted status in the world community because of our crazy leader.
In 2003 America invaded and occupied Iraq without the support and agreement of the world. In an act of defiance against United Nations authority we showed the world that we can do whatever we want. Then we started setting up secret prisons to torture people and declared that America will not follow the Geneva Conventions and honor international treaties that we have agreed to. Because of this America no longer has the trust of the world community and can not lead the would like it once had.
So now when we come crawling back to the United Nations calling for resolutions regarding nuclear proliferation we are neither respected nor trusted. We are in fact seen in the same light as Iran and North Korea as a nation with bombs that is out of control. There is a price to pay for thumbing our noses at the world community and we are now paying that price. Our military is overextended, our economy is weak, and no one likes us anymore.
