Three cheers for murder?

I feel a little queasy over this whole thing. I heard my son's 9 year old friend proclaim that he was "psyched that they killed Obama". People on TV are announcing to the world that they have never been prouder to be American. After seeing that, I couldn't be more embarrassed for us. Our proudest moment is a murder? Seriously?!

Politicians are absolutely glowing as they hold up newspaper headlines that read "Rot in Hell" next to photos of Osama Bin Laden. Is this who we're proud to be? I'm really struggling with this. It looks like a parody to me.

I'm not joining anyone for a $2 beer to celebrate an assassination.
