He is so unpopular, and by unpopular I mean like on another planet. Between the Messiah and the Cuda, this guy has no chance. I almost feel sorry for the maggot, NOT!!

So many people have a vested interest in ‘keeping Osama alive’ because their varying agenda require the personification of the ‘invulnerable terrorist mastermind’ that few people will admit the obvious.

I can understand why the politicians and bureaucrats want to make people think that he is alive. The ‘spooks’ want to ‘keep him alive’ so that their ‘find Bin Laden’ budget won’t be cut. And of course the Bush haters want him to be alive so that they can say Bush failed on his biggest promise.

But it is absolutely beyond me to understand why good conservative journalists and commentators want to perpetuate this nonsense.

Especially when Zawahiri IS still alive. HE is the mastermind. HE is the dangerous one. Osama’s relevance became nil the day his money was cut off.

Bullsh*t.
OBL has been dead for a long time, probably since November 2001.
President Bush’s legacy is a fine, pride one.
And as a last classy little touch, the First Lady will *not* be stealing the silverware and the furniture from the White House nor will the Bush Administration staff trash their offices and take all the “O”s off the keyboards nor will President Bush issue pardons on a war and tax criminal like Marc Rich because his wife visited the WH with big bundles of cash.

Excellent points Jen,I remember when I heard they pulled that crap. I wasn’t surprised at what they did considering how Slick Willy and the Clintoons demeaned and sullied the office of the president during their 8 years instead I was shocked and appalled at their brazen classless ways, but again not surprised.

I do have a question for you though, why did they remove all of the “O”s from the keyboards?

Whatever great things President Bush did to deter terrorist attacks this issue of Osama Bin Laden getting away will haunt his legacy.

Remember when Bush promised to get this guy, no matter what?

He’s only got 6 more days…

What can you say? Osama is much better at hiding than Sadam.

The al-Qaida leader also vowed that the terror network would open “new fronts” against the United States

Isn’t that kinda like, making a virtue out of necessity?

To add to the below rebuttal El Coqui had for e-pirate:

Remember when Clinton could had gotten this bastard twice without any fuzz and didn’t before 9/11?

El Coqui on January 14, 2009 at 9:12 AM

I’d like to add that Clintoon was so busy playing hide the cigar with Monica (and lord knows how many other interns) as well as covering for his other indiscretions (not to mention tarnishing the Oval Office and the image of the office of the president) he continually allowed our enemies to plot against us ultimately leading to 9-11. I realize all the left-tards insist “9-11 happened on Bush’s watch” but the truth of the matter is (as El Coqui alluded to) Clintoon had several opportunities to kill Osama and failed to do so, and for several reasons.

First, Clintoon is an affirmed pacifist and hates anything to do with the military, secondly he gutted our military and intelligence agencies (how else did he manage to have that huge budget surplus he was always bragging about) and of course as I mentioned above he was so busy playing hide the cigar and covering up his indiscretions he effectively ensured AQ’s 9-11 plot would be successful.

So while Bush didn’t get Osama during his 8 years in office Clintoon didn’t either despite literally having Osama in the sites of a smart bomb and a country willing to hand Osama over to Clintoon on a silver platter.
So e-pirate, based on the above why should any of us think for one minute “peace and love Obambi” would be any more successful at getting Osama than GWB?

Its obviously not an easy undertaking. If anyone can get this goof, its us. What is getting me is the sympathy people are having for the 9/11 suspects tortured at Gitmo. For one, I hope the ones that got released were tagged in some way, and two where’s the sympathy for the 3000+ pepople slaughtered on 9/11? I’d say beat the information out of those ‘suspects’, tag their asses and relsease them back into the wild with cruise missles programmed to go after the tags in about a month after that.

Bush didn’t pick bin Laden. bin laden chose himself when he declared war on the Unites States. Without support from the American public Bush had a difficult enough time waging war on al Qaeda in Iraq.

It is clueless to suggest he should have waged war on Saudi Arabia and Islam at the same time. You are correct that Islam needs to be scrutinized but Bush had enough on his plate. He was accused of trying to start a war on Islam as it was.

Bush has always used the “we” word when referring to action against bin Laden. “We” go on beyond the end of Bush’s Administration. I notice that Mr. Obama has also put great store on getting bin Laden (which is why he is not saying he’s going to leave Afghanistan, and has said he will invade Pakistan if necessary), so hopefully the continuity is in place to continue this policy.

As long as the policy is to protect Islam and Muslims from scrutiny we will continue to lose as we are now.

When was the last time there was contemporary video tape from OBL? 2001?

Would that be a fireside chat?
