In other words, Osama bin Laden is an authoritarian and a zealot. Not a good combination at all. My family had it's authoritarian, my grandfather. I never saw that side of him but I'm told he was a vicious bastard to my father and uncle. And my father, he's something of an ***** if only because he's a stunted authoritarian. The final straw happened when I was 16 years old. He'd decided that for my summer vacation I'd be painting the house. Well one day I'm up on the ladder painting away and he comes out and makes the fateful mistake of saying "I could get a four year old to paint better than that."I climbed off the ladder, handed him the brush and said "Then go get a ***** four year old.", walked away, climbed in my car, and left. That was the day my father realized that he couldn't boss his son around. And Omar, he had the same basic issue.
