The Death of An Iconic Monster...

Sunday, May 1, 2011.  11:20 p.m.  In a few minutes, President Obama will be announcing that Osama bin Laden is dead.  President Barack Obama seems to be a President that gets things done.  Amid all the mindless blather, political posturing, Machiavellian maneuvering, and manufactured hysteria that is delivered to his door in a relentlessly voracious stream, he simply gets things done.  He doesn't talk a lot of trash.  He just does what needs to be done.

The (partial) list is impressive:

Reform the American Health Care system.  Check.

Rescue the American banking system.  Check.

Rescue the American automobile industry.  Check.

Successfully appoint a Latina onto the Supreme Court.  Check.

Maybe a Nobel Prize might be nice.  Check.

Get Osama bin Laden.  Check.

He's not finished yet.  Not by a long shot.

So how will the Right try to spin this as a bad thing?
