The president has decided not to release death photos of Osama bin Laden, an administration official briefed by the White House tells CNN.

Releasing the photos would serve no useful purpose. Domestically, the anti-Obama extremists won’t believe the photos are genuine anyway, just as they demanded to see his birth certificate then refused to accept its authenticity when he released it. Internationally, showing the corpse would only incite further anti-American sentiment. If bin Laden’s alive, I’m sure he’ll let us know.

No more mouth-to-mouth

At work today there’s a CPR training class. It filled before I could sign up, but that’s OK, because I already know all about CPR from watching movies. You clasp your hands together, slam them into the chest of the victim over and over, while yelling, “DON’T YOU DIE ON ME, DAMMIT!” That usually works, and if it doesn’t you throw your head back and scream, “NOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!”

Follow-up: Denro says…

SUCCESSFUL CPR: You keep saying “COME ON, COME ON, BREATHE, DAMN YOU!”, then the person coughs a few times, shakes their head and gets up. Then you say “You really scared me back there.” The person says, “Thanks, I owe you one. Now, let’s get those dirty devils!”

There’s this…

I mourn the loss of thousands of precious lives, but I will not rejoice in the death of one, not even an enemy. Returning hate for hate multiplies hate, adding deeper darkness to a night already devoid of stars. Darkness cannot drive out darkness: only light can do that. Hate cannot drive out hate: only love can do that.

… and there’s this.

Follow-up: That MLK quote is a fake! Or at least partially fake.
