Terrorists terrorists terrorists terrorists terrorists terrorists terrorists terrorists terrorists.

Today marks one year since the death of Osama bin Laden was announced, and Republicans are predictably in a snit.

Presumptive Republican presidential nominee Mitt Romney is calling on President Barack Obama to not let the killing of Osama bin Laden become a "politically divisive event."
