Anyone getting tired of the bin Laden death coverage yet?

Christ, I knew this was going to happen. They are going to drag this thing out as long as they can for ratings purposes.

All the somber symbolism is getting to me. I can just imagine all the sheep eating this stuff up. Gosh, I'm feeling all tingly inside!

Is this going to end up being a month long "somber celebration" before the media stops pumping this for ratings?
Any bets on when the bin Laden story will finally no longer be the featured story? A week, two weeks? A month?

1. Something that we were trying to do for 10 years happened all of 3 days ago

2. The saturation has me turning to doing other things

I'm thankful that very warm weather is coming here this weekend. Meantime, I've been watching more movies and have a few library books handy. But thank goodness I've been able to avoid housework! :-/

3. It's easy to avoid it on TV; just don't watch. Here on DU it seems to be equally hard to avoid and

I like spending time here. :)

4. Cheer up - look on the bright side

At least its managed to bury most of the meritless shit on that bunch of complete tossers aka rebels out in Libya.

8. I think the Republicans would agree.....

the quicker this is off the air, the better for them.
We wouldn't want to see Democrats depicted
as strong and competent for too long.

Of course, it doesn't matter if we had Bush held up as a hero for months on in
by this media. The heroic act of holding a bullhorn and talking shit in it
is always more newsworthy and captivating. :eyes:

10. I'll put you down as being for the entire month then n/t

11. Till 2012 would be fine with me.....

I'm interested in Progress, and we can't get there with a Republican House,
or a Republican anything else. That's why I've posted here since 2003.....
not for any other reason....cause I already know that complaining on the Internet
day after day, months on in, ain't gonna do shit to actually advance my realistic goals.

9. Nope, it just confirms that he's still dead.

A la SNL on General Franco.
