US Airstrike in Somalia

3 missiles, one newly remodeled house.

It was a deliberate, precise strike against a known terrorist and his associates," one U.S. military official said in Washington, speaking on condition of anonymity because he was not authorized to comment on the record.

Dave, you didn't use the proper AoSHQ headline for this kind of news.  Lemme try:

2 Probably the AP will claim we were targeting "youths".

It was a wedding. I swear it. A wedding party and there were 1,000,000 civilian babies killed in this airstrike.

8 Excellent news to start the day with.  Though, no doubt the usual suspects among the left will claim we hit a wedding party that was being held in a baby milk factory.

Do you love the outdoors and the smell of barbecue? We have the perfect house for you. Recently remodelled. Completely open to the elements on the south side, for that great outdoors view. The lingering smell of charred human flesh will bring back the memories of that camping trip! The previous occupant spent a lot of sweat, tears, blood and TLC to make this place juuuust perfect.

$100 cash back to steam-clean the carpets.

12 Remodeled? Ah! The new "flattened look"!

How avant guarde!

13 This is obviously a Wag the Dog to get the draft dodger McCain elected. How do we really know he was in a POW camp, I heard he broke his arms mountain climbing.

I question the timing, at this point.

Very popular in parts of the Middle East, too.

"It was a deliberate, precise strike...," quoth the "Washington official."

As opposed to the Weapons Officer accidentally setting his "big tits in bikini" coffee mug down on the "Fire Tomahawk" button, and then yelling "Uh, CAAAAPTAIN?"

Good grief.

16 Uh, Mr. Dave in Texas...a point of order....

Those of us that are in the military are are at the "deckplate" (thought you'd like the Navy/Marine Corps term) don't call it a "deliberate, precise strike".  We call it an "urban redevelopment project", because we're getting the rats out of the 'hood.

17 How 'bout this...

EXTREME HOME MAKEOVER: Hellfire Edition. 

Hosted by U.S. Military.

On today's show, a known terrorist and his associates have their hovel remodeled in the new "flattened look" by Uncle Sam with a large group of volunteers...

...and a few missiles.

Feel free to take the basic idea and run with it if you can get better teh funneh mileage out of it.

32 I will have a hard time buying ugg classic cardy at normal brick and mortar store for now on knowing that I can browse the largest selection I have ever seen and purchase confidently. Thanks for being a great company.Although your ugg boots cardy website is entered by users, the site has a lot of accurate and useful information on it.your net shop is kept to a minimum and favours websites connected to the ugg cardy boots Web Design Library in appearance and subject.
The popular blue ugg is renowned for its comfort. But some doctors worry that the popular black ugg could cause serious foot pain in the long run.So some podiatrists across the country are telling ugg classic cardy lovers to watch their steps. In fact,there is nothing wrong!
The crochet boots online retailer also knows bargain-hungry shoppers are scouring the Web for discounts, and its UGG Classic Crochet rivals are more than happy to provide them. So it is putting coupon codes on ugg classic crochet that customers can use to save money on its site.
