On the first point, my wiener dog would have made the same decision.  On the second, what other choice did he have?  Still, he could have screwed up on either count and he did not.  

What drives me crazy is the narcissism that drips from any comment the guy makes.  It was Him, Him, Him with a little more of Him thrown in.  In his first draft I'm sure he made the kill shot too.

Another thing that bothers me is the respectful and careful way we supposedly handled bin Laden's now moldering corpse (after we pumped its cranium full of lead, that is.)  What did that cockroach ever do to earn one iota of respect from the country he has attacked and vilified so often?
