Poll question: Bush vs. Osama: Your rating?
BUSH WANTS OSAMA DEAD OR ALIVE...
"I want justice. And there's an old poster out West, I recall, that says, 'Wanted: Dead or Alive.'"


BUSH DOESN'T CARE ABOUT OSAMA
"I don't know where he is.You know, I just don't spend that much time on him... I truly am not that concerned about him."
It's been 1550 days since Bush said he'd catch Osama bin Laden

1. Other: An intentional disregard so as to implement Neocon dream
Osama was the manna that gave Bush et al an excuse to go to war against Saddam. Anybody remember 2002, when Bush beat the drums about Saddam, and wouldn't mention Osama Bin Laden? Read Richard Clarke, the Downing Street Memo, etc. It's all there.

2. Osama is a Bush family friend.
How can we expect the poor pResident to find him and try him, you KNOW how loyal he is to his friends. :sarcasm:

5. Yes, and I'll never be convinced they're not somehow in cahoots.

3. most of your choices were good ones!
Like Wes Clark said back in January of 2004.....

Bush "never intended" to get Osama Bin Laden: "We bombed Afghanistan, we missed Osama Bin Laden, partly because the president never intended to put the resources in to get Osama Bin Laden. All along, right after 9/11, they'd made their mind up, I guess, that we were going to go after Saddam Hussein. That's what people in the Pentagon told me. And they capped the resources, stopped the commitment to Afghanistan, and started shifting to prepare to go after Saddam Hussein." (Jan. 6, McKelvie Middle School, Bedford.)

President Bush doesn't even want to find Bin Laden "Newsweek magazine says he's in the mountains of western Pakistan. And I guess if Newsweek could find him there, we could, too, if we wanted to." (Jan. 8, Havenwoods Heritage Heights senior center, Concord.)

7. Two more Osama waffles by the idiot and thief.
"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."
—Washington, D.C., Sept. 13, 2001

"I don't know where bin Laden is. I have no idea and really don't care. It's not that important. It's not our priority."
—Washington, D.C., March 13, 2002
