    Yes, I know. Did you agree with that decision? And, to repeat: Do you have an opinion on this, basso? What do you consider the drawbacks and benefits to a trial or non-trial?

    i agreed that saddam should be tried by iraqis, in an iraqi court.

    osama is not a head of state. he is a soldier, albeit an irregular on. he should be his fate on the battlefield.

    Ok, so maybe it was a typo, if you're that bad a typing.

    That wasn't the question.

    But, like, good effort, I guess?

    He's not a soldier, he's a terrorist. He doesn't fight on a battlefield, he bombs innocents. I'm surprised you can't see that basso. I guess you don't love America as much as we Liberals.

    So would you approve of a summary execution of Osama on the battlefield even if he surrendered?

    The only reason for the typo in the poll is force of habit--he types "Obama" about a thousand times a day.

    Just curious basso, but what percent of responses were you expecting?

    I get the feeling your expected response rate was not achieved and you have attained what the youngsters call, self ownage.
