Reply #47: Or, just smoke. Don't kill any son of a BushCo family friend/investor.

Osama's head may have been ordered, but maybe it's just bluster. Who cares what Gen. Joe Scmoe says, when Osama is found, orders from the top, i.e. Bushco, supercede.

No one will listen if Osama talks. But, his mother and father still love the little schmuck, and these parents are friendly business partners with BushCo. The kind that W relied upon to bail him out during his whole life.

The delay in orders could have been W cogitating over ramifications. That would take him soooome time.
