You know why the porn thing matters?
Edited on Fri May-13-11 03:32 PM by originalpckelly
You can be an evil SOB, people don't like that, but at least you're an honest evil SOB.

However, if you're a fucking hypocrite and you yourself, or your closest followers cannot even hold themselves to your high standards, then it outrages people in a way nothing else does.

Contrast:
Can't see a woman's hair...or face...or ankles...
Can, however, see her get banged in a porno.

And that's it.

3. That's fine but you don't know if it was his or his teen aged kid's.
And unlike our Republican repeat offenders, being this kind of hypocrite isn't what the guy seemed to be about. He was the kind of hypocrite that got other people killed in jihad but there's no indication he did any of the social stuff that he went on against.

Isn't killing people or inviting his own son to be a suicide bomber bad enough?

6. It's just another whack at the tree.
Hopefully, the tree of bullshit will fall one day soon.

I was hacked! It was a virus!
I accidentally clicked a link! It was my deadbeat brother-in-law using my computer! You may be right of course, but excuses for having porn on the computer are almost as funny as a "holy" man have porn on his computer in the first place.

15. I may just have had to sit through too many dick jokes
as a comedy writer to appreciate this but, the report wasn't that the files were his. And there were a number of younger men in the compound, like in their teens.

lol

And that sort of fits with the profile. I'll be your visionary leader, you be my inflated cred.

7. How many of these OBL porn OPs are you going to post?
If it's going to be many more, I'll just ignore you. If you're about done, I won't.

It's an irrelevant issue, and we don't even know if OBL even knew about the porn.

He's a fucking terrorist. I imagine he had lots of bad qualities.

19. I like to contrast with Spitamenes (warlord of Sogdiana)
and his wife. She did not like hiding out in tents trying to avoid Alexander the Great so she had her husband killed and presented his head to Alexander. When you look on a map it is north of Bin Laden's sanctuary, but it is funny to contrast the situations.

Bin Laden did a better job picking his wives. I wonder if they knew about his secret stash.

I had to throw out my dad's stash after he died. A decidedly unpleasant experience. I remember a Saturday Night Live skit one time in which a company specialized in cleaning up such indiscretions after someone died.

28. Which leads us back to questions about who he actually was
Was he a radical fundamentalist, bent on world-wide jihad, or was that Grade A US Psy-Ops Bullshit?

10. It's 100% sure this is an accurate report, right?
And not some post hoc prurience ginned up to embarrass a guy we shot dead to divert attention from something else (and I can't imagine what that would be)? Because that would be kind of a low thing to do.

17. Doesn't matter, actually.
His people, and some of ours, and Pakistan's PR lobby, will claim it's a nasty American slander "to divert attention" from whacking the guy.

What I find kinda "low" is the supreme silliness of imagining a guy cooped up for a decade would NOT have some porn around if he could get it.

13. Osama took two parking spaces and didn't clean up after his dog! Damn prick.
He also complained about a meal after he finished it and stole his neighbor's newspaper!

23. Once again, I feel like I have come into the middle of a family squabble
Just for giggles sometimes, I wish folks would reference what the hell they are talking about.

Don't let me bother you. Continue the fight.

If you are not done by next November, please stop long enough to vote for Obama. Thank you.

25. CIA clowns really need to get some new material.
CIA unit's wacky idea: Depict Saddam as gay
By Jeff Stein

During planning for the 2003 invasion of Iraq, the CIA's Iraq Operations Group kicked around a number of ideas for discrediting Saddam Hussein in the eyes of his people.

One was to create a video purporting to show the Iraqi dictator having sex with a teenage boy, according to two former CIA officials familiar with the project.

http://voices.washingtonpost.com/spy-talk/2010/05/cia_group_had_wacky_ideas_to_d.html

(right after they figure out the difference between gay and pedophile)

26. Well I don't know about anyone else, but...
I don't think I know a single person who isn't a bit hypocritical about something.

Hell...I'll admit to being hypocritical about some things myself.

Must be awfully boring to be a Saint....
