For the country, I think it is basically a good thing. For once, we seem to have demonstrated some competence. This was sorely lacking. I expect some euphoria over this, but reality will set back in shortly.
Another thing struck me was all the celebration by those who support Obama. It was these same people who like to brag about their heightened sensitivity. Their exquisite refinement. They would never do anything so gauche as violate human rights. Well, their President has just violated the hell out of somebody's rights and they are really thrilled about it. They acted in a similar fashion as Osama's cohorts would have with Obama's body, if the situation had been reversed. More than likely, if these people had their way, they would drag Osama's body down the street while proclaiming their exquisite refinement and concern for democracy and human rights. Great victory, huh?
All in all, I think we should be grateful that, after nearly a decade, and over a trillion dollars spent, they managed to find one man hiding in a cave. Whoopee!!
Big government proves its worth.

Actually he was hiding in a mansion near a Pakistani military installation. Whether you get euphoria or apathy from this, the bastard got justice and that can't be bad.
