1008 Days since 9/11, and Bin Laden still free....9/11/2001 ANYONE?
Edited on Wed Jun-16-04 11:53 AM by jackstraw45
1006 days since Bush said:

"The most important thing is for us to find Osama bin Laden. It is our number one priority and we will not rest until we find him."
- Bush, 9/13/01


"When I say something, I mean it." - Bush, April 13, 2004

These should be played over and over and over again.


Troops in Iraq: 140,000

Troops in Afghanistan: 13,000


Very telling. VERY telling.

2. 45-48% of Americans who think Bush* is a strong leader should
read these comments and ask some questions about their "leader" and ask what his true interests are....

4. At this point, I think it will HURT Bush to cart him out
It's been SO long and I think it will raise questions of WHY it took over 1,000 days to capture a guy you PLEDGED TO GET years ago.

They pulled almost ALL the troops from Afghanistan to fight an unnecessary war in Iraq.

I think Rove is playing with fire on this one.

5. Kick....Bin Laden WILL be an issue one way or another
Either they will cart him out or not.

But Bush's words, from 3 years ago, SHOULD and MUST be held against him, IMO.
