The United States military avenged the murders of nearly 3000 innocent Americans with the death of Osama Bin Laden. Today, justice has been served. Today is the day that many families of the victims of that tragic day have waited nearly ten years for. The special ops units, counter-intelligence, the military, the Bush Administration, and yes, the Obama Administration should be thanked.
I want to write some political thoughts tonight, but tonight should not be a night of politics. Tonight is a night that the American people can truly say that we did not forget the victims of 9/11 and their families.
