"One Killer Killing Another": Journalist and Activist Allan Nairn on Obama’s Targeted Killing of Bin Laden
http://www.democracynow.org/2011/5/2/one_killer_killing_another_journalist_and

"Bin Laden is dead, but the world is still governed by bin Ladens. People cheer because they thought they saw justice, but this was not justice delivered by victims. This was one killer killing another,” says Allan Nairn. “... I think we need an American uprising, if we are to put a stop to this kind of killing of innocent people. We need an American Romero, someone like Archbishop Romero in El Salvador.”

5. The left wonders why they can't win more than 3% of the vote in elections
The demonstration this morning is very clear. They are a fringe group at best.

A bunch of people upset that Osama bin Laden has been found and killed. That's the election platform for the left.

It's beyond tone-deafness. It's all-sound-sucked-into-massive-space-vortex deafness.

7. Progressives/Liberals in Other Nations Don't Engage in this Sanctimony
This is why they can win national elections and enact a true progressive agenda like national health care.
