What we need is a "21st Century Full Employment Act for Peace and Prosperity" which would make it a mandatory requirement that the president and Congress attain and maintain full employment.

Justice or revenge or a mafia style hit to keep Osama bin Laden from "spilling the beans."


All the reports coming out in the last couple hours say that Osama bin Laden was unarmed, that the woman tried to cover him with her body to protect him.

This was a savage and brutal murder; an assassination. It was ok for bin Laden to kill thousands of people as long as he was working for the CIA who trained him in all these hideous techniques of mass murder.

Like I have said; bin Laden was killed (and probably in hiding) because he knew the CIA wanted him dead to prevent him from "spilling the beans."

Even if other people in the world find nothing offensive about what was done, we, as a people should be ashamed Osama bin Laden was not brought to justice in the World Court where this case belonged.

This is not justice; at best it is vicious revenge; at worst it has been a barbaric and savage mafia style "hit" organized by the CIA intended to keep Osama bin Laden's mouth shut.

I don't know of any country calling itself a democracy that would engage in this kind of anti-human act.
