The Social Poets: Mission Accomplished: Dead Terrorist Osama Bin Laden Political Cartoons
The Social Poets: Mission Accomplished: Dead Terrorist Osama Bin Laden Political Cartoons: "From Denny: While Pakistan bobs and weaves on who knew what and when about the whereabouts of Bin Laden for five long years, there is no shortage of opinion about his recent demise.
Frankly, no person of sound and reasonable mind believes the folks in Pakistan did not know Bin Laden was living next door. Even the locals who did not know for sure his identity knew something creepy was going on in that tourist town about 100 miles outside of Islamabad.
Of course, when you know a really bad guy with too much money, possesses a desperate need for privacy and keeps too many armed guards, well, it is a definite clue to steer clear of him. Would you try to friend a drug lord or the world's number one terrorist if he moved into your neighborhood?"

Beautiful Illustrated Quotations: Mothers Day Quotes: Rose Kennedy
Beautiful Illustrated Quotations: Mothers Day Quotes: Rose Kennedy: "From Denny: When you are looking for inspiration in tough times and wondering how to get through the trials of being a mother, look no further than to Rose Fitzgerald Kennedy. Her life often played out like an intense soap opera. She experienced the deaths of several of her children before their time, of which two were political assassinations. She lost her first son to war. Her husband cheated on her and yet she remained committed to the marriage.
Rose Kennedy was one tough lady you could not help but admire. She looked at her children as powerhouses that would influence others and change the world. And change the world they did. One even became president: John F. Kennedy.
No matter how dark times looked she looked up to God and kept her faith. She also kept her great sense of humor for she was a very intelligent woman greatly interested in social issues. She believed in a life of public service and remained steadfast in her beliefs and her commitments to others until the day she left this earth."

The Social Poets: Funny Obama at White House Correspondents Dinner
The Social Poets: Funny Obama at White House Correspondents Dinner: "From Denny: First the President starts off with how the state of Hawaii finally released his long form birth certificate to shut up The Birther crowd. He said he also decided to release the actual footage of his birth, never before seen in the past 50 years, not even by him.
Cue up the African music playing for his birth. When imaginary video ends, he says, 'I want to make clear to the Fox News table that this video was a joke.' Yeah, good move, Mr. President. These guys are suckers for satire sites.
Turns out it was music from a Disney movie and not his live birth footage. Just saying.
Obama moved on to criticism he is 'too professorial.' So, he told the crowd he was assigning them some reading to draw their own conclusions.
Others say he is arrogant so he has found a great self-help tool for this: his poll numbers."

Dennys Funny Quotes: Funny Will Ferrell Reacts To Bin Laden Death As President Bush
Dennys Funny Quotes: Funny Will Ferrell Reacts To Bin Laden Death As President Bush: "From Denny: Comic Will Ferrell resurrects his George W. Bush 43 reenactment where Bush learns that Osama bin Laden is now dead. Yeah, the Navy Seals got the sucker, uh, gopher.
'President Bush' reports from his local Dallas Sizzler steak house, complains about how there is no taco bar and plunks down just one more meatball onto his plate before giving his official response and report to the media about the MIA gopher.
The usually clueless George Bush goes on and on about how he and his gardening staff - the Mexicans and the whites - finally ran down that troublesome gopher and killed it. Bush named the gopher 'Ardilla' and parallels the bin Laden death to that of the gopher demise. You know how it is when a president gets really angry about some wretch trying to tear up his back yard."

Dennys Global Politics: Libya: Turkish Leader Demands Gadafi Step Down Highly Significant
Dennys Global Politics: Libya: Turkish Leader Demands Gadafi Step Down Highly Significant: "From Denny: The entire planet is aware Turkey is a key player in the Muslim world. Turkey has encouraged the many recent democracy movements sweeping rapidly throughout the Arab world. Up until now, Turkish Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan has resisted handing over the public gift of full support to the rebel revolt in Libya.
Now, times have changed. Erdogan says it's time for Moammar Gadafi to go. Mark this day on your calendar for Turkey decisively turned against the Libyan leader. Erdogan urged Gadafi to step down from power - immediately. Erdogan says the Libyan people have changed, in so many words saying the people have outgrown the stagnant toxic 41-year-old dictatorship of Gadafi."

The Social Poets: Dead: Osama Bin Laden, Time To Stop Iraq-Afghan Wars
The Social Poets: Dead: Osama Bin Laden, Time To Stop Iraq-Afghan Wars: "From Denny: Justice came swiftly this weekend, dished out from American Special Forces in a deadly fire fight, unleashed by President Obama to kill decades-long terrorist Osama Bin Laden. The mastermind of the 9/11 terrorist attacks in 2001 was found living in the lap of luxury in a large mansion in the affluent suburb of Abbottabad, about 30 miles outside of Islamabad, Pakistan. As it was, in the 40 minute fire fight, it was believed he used one of his wives as a human shield as he fired upon the assault team.
Terrorist cult leader turned world pariah
Like the typical cult leader he preached sacrifice and frugal living to his dewy-eyed followers yet enjoyed a lavish life style for himself, his family and closest followers."
