Got him! Gitmo?

Who in America isn't happy at the news that Osama Bin Laden has been killed?

However, while this has a lot of symbolic significance, we're past any sort of "surrender at Appomattox" era where wars come to a formal end. Because of that, there will be no repeal of the Patriot Act, Guantanamo won't be closed any sooner, and people flying today will be groped by the TSA as affectionately as they were yesterday.

Yes, this is a great victory for all those who have fought so hard and given and sacrificed so much. It rings at the same pitch as the Miracle at Midway. But neither that nor this ended the wars of which they were part.
