One Thousand Five Hundred Sixty Nine(1569)DAYS Since 9/11 -Bin Laden FREE!
Edited on Wed Dec-28-05 12:51 PM by jackstraw45
1,569 days.

The Crawford Coward sits on his pig farm, US Soldiers DIE in Iraq and Bin Laden enjoys his 5th year of FREEDOM since 9/11.



"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."
- George Bush, 9/13/01


The media would be RAKING a Dem. president over the COALS for making such a statement and letting 5 years go by with no results.

Are they telling us that $250 BILLION spent in Iraq couldn't have bought justice for 9/11 victims?

4. "You know, I just don't spend that much time on him"
Q Mr. President, in your speeches now you rarely talk or mention Osama bin Laden. Why is that? Also, can you tell the American people if you have any more information, if you know if he is dead or alive? Final part -- deep in your heart, don't you truly believe that until you find out if he is dead or alive, you won't really eliminate the threat of --

THE PRESIDENT: Deep in my heart I know the man is on the run, if he's alive at all. Who knows if he's hiding in some cave or not; we haven't heard from him in a long time. And the idea of focusing on one person is -- really indicates to me people don't understand the scope of the mission.

Terror is bigger than one person. And he's just -- he's a person who's now been marginalized. His network, his host government has been destroyed. He's the ultimate parasite who found weakness, exploited it, and met his match. He is -- as I mentioned in my speech, I do mention the fact that this is a fellow who is willing to commit youngsters to their death and he, himself, tries to hide -- if, in fact, he's hiding at all.

So I don't know where he is. You know, I just don't spend that much time on him, Kelly, to be honest with you. I'm more worried about making sure that our soldiers are well-supplied; that the strategy is clear; that the coalition is strong; that when we find enemy bunched up like we did in Shahikot Mountains, that the military has all the support it needs to go in and do the job, which they did.

6. So you feel Bin Laden is a guy you'd want to have a beer with?
Do you think that excuses our apathy at his freedom? Do you think the widows and widowers of victims would agree?

7. I think that Bin Laden, captured, would wind up pointing right at
Bushco; something Bushco doesn't want. He will never be captured.

10. And we, as a nation, find this acceptable?
Why not use this fact as leverage against this corrupt administration.

Call their bluff. They don't WANT to capture Bin Laden - but that doesn't mean it's okay with US.

Where is our collective outrage?

9. Bush Bin Laden will never catch the son of his closest Saudi backers.
Why would he? The PNAC owes him big time.
