Curious...

I think I heard the current bounty on Osama Bin Laden's head is a million dollars. What do you think would happen if the bounty was raised to $50 million, or $100 million?

[ugpastor]

It is actually $27 million...

Anyone ready to go hunting with me?

i may be, but it's kinda like taxes. in order to take the deduction at the end of the year and get a return, you need to have the money in the first place to spend so that you can achieve that goal/deduction/ROI. If'n I had 10-15 mil, and having a ROI of 27M, that would be a good one, but first would need some intel to act upon. and finding a guy eating banana's and SPAM in a cave is pretty difficult without any leads in the Middle, Near East.

Wow. That might be good enough for the "South to rise again". Can you imagine an army of several hundred "good ole' boys" with deer rifles headed for the middle east?

Yeah, it would be called another war the south lost.

I think it would be a great premise for a comedy movie.

"Huntin' License" could be the title. Frustrated with the inability to catch bin Laden, the White House secretly commissions what it thinks is a crack shot black ops group, but in reality is a deer hunting club in southern Tennessee/Alabama/Georgia (name your favorite southern state here), to go get him. The madcap pursuit of OBL by a bunch of Beechnut chewing, George Jones listening, Pabst Blue Ribbon drinking GOB's meets all kinds of hurdles, but they surprisingly get on his trail. In the middle of the "operation", the President discovers the truth about who it is that he's authorized to perform the search, and calls off the mission just as the guys are closing in on OBL. Along the way, one of the hunting buddies falls in love with a Pakistani woman who happens to be the daughter of an OBL confidant, who is drawn to him after she sees his skill in handling goats and admires his rifle, or some such. You get the picture.

It's heartening that several of you southerners took that with good humor. You're good sports.

[Dr. Ron]

Yep , Tim....cause we know the truth.....we didn't lose we quit!

We only fought cause we thought they were after our women....when we found out that wasn't what it was about, we quit.....to heck with the rest of the issues.

[EagerBeaver]

we didn't lose we quit!

Then you still lost.

I remember a high school football game in which several of our guys quit during the game. They were down 50-0 at the half and didn't want to go back out.

Still went down as a loss though.

There are also offering viagra to older tribe leaders for information

OUCH! (Poimen, I'm not with him...)


I don't think that it would matter how much you offered them. They have a unique characteristic that has not changed since the beginning.

“Behold, I will stir up the Medes against them, which shall not regard silver; and as for gold, they shall not delight in it.” (Isa. 13:17).

The Medes are the ancestors of modern day Kurds, but they are representative of the Bedouin people of the entire Middle East. Just think of what Western civilization has done with oil money for instance. But the Arabs and the other peoples of the region live in abject squalor. They don't view money like we do. They do view anything like we do.

Look, al-Qaeda is pitting us against ourselves. Guys, don't let them play these mind-games with you.
