Osama bin Laden is dead!
The mass murderer responsible for the deaths of thousands of Americans on September 11th was captured and killed by U.S. forces in Pakistan yesterday, and out of respect for Islamic beliefs his body was buried at sea within twenty-four hours of his death. Glenn reacted to the news on radio this morning and offered up some alternatives of what the U.S. forces could have done with bin Laden’s body.
“First of all, congratulations to President Obama. He got him. Congratulations to SEAL team,” Glenn said. “I found out this morning that it was the SEALs and I wrote to Marcus [Luttrell] right away and I said God bless you guys.
“My problem with this is that we gave this guy a dignified burial at sea, or at least that's what they said. I really would have put this guy in a meat grinder with a pig, sorry. Oh, you're not going to get your 72 virgins? Sorry, that sucks to be you. Wrap him up in Hormel, pack him in a can of Spam, man,” Glenn said.
“He's a terrorist. He's a serial killer. He's a mass murderer,” Glenn said.
“They gave him a dignified burial and honored the body so he could go and get his 72 virgins? I'm telling you, I would have put cans of bacon bits in every orifice of his body.”
“They don't want to have a shrine. You don't want to have a place where the body, where people can gather and think of it as his site,” Stu said in defense of the burial at sea.
“Put him on that little island in Disney World where they've got Walt in the freezer. Put him there,” Glenn joked. “ Put him in the bottom of a freezer in the basement of that building where they're keeping the Ark of the Covenant. I saw it on Indiana Jones.”
Glenn then got serious and thanked the people who helped make this possible.
“Thank God for the Navy SEALs. Thank God for all those people that have worked so tirelessly over the last ten years to find this dirtbag and then kill him. Thank God we have a president who actually authorized the shoot to kill. That is a surprising shock to me. And I think that deserves to be said, that I didn't think that this president would actually pull the trigger well, he didn't, but have somebody pull the trigger. And he did. Congratulations, President Obama. Thank you for doing the right thing on this.”
“So thank you, President Obama, thank you, U.S. military. And America, celebrate today, roll up your sleeves tomorrow because the job ain't done,” Glenn said.
