...snuffin' out Kid Jihadi with a THOUSAND POUNDS OF PRECISION GUIDED JUSTICE!
There's nothing like seeing GI Joe Iraqi raise the roof, officially-issued assault rifle in hand, parading around the rubble. (Man, I wish I had screen shots from the television coverage!)
That, combined with the 'Canes whompin' the Oilers 5-0 = a GOOD MORNING.
¡Palabra a sus madres, los cabrones!
P.S. Fellow Munuvian, CalTechGirl, was the first to break the news on the Blogosphere, but alas, trackbacks are non-operational.
UPDATE: The transcript of the President's remarks can be found here.
One of my favorite parts:
Now Zarqawi has met his end, and this violent man will never murder again. Iraqis can be justly proud of their new government and its early steps to improve their security. And Americans can be enormously proud of the men and women of our armed forces, who worked tirelessly with their Iraqi counterparts to track down this brutal terrorist and put him out of business.The operation against Zarqawi was conducted with courage and professionalism by the finest military in the world. [Yea! --ed.] Coalition and Iraqi forces persevered through years of near misses and false leads, and they never gave up. Last night their persistence and determination were rewarded. On behalf of all Americans, I congratulate our troops on this remarkable achievement.
I agree on both counts....
