**1,297 DAYS since 9/11 & Bin Laden STILL a free man.**
Edited on Thu Mar-31-05 08:40 PM by jackstraw45
Just thought I'd remind us all.

That's over 185 weeks of "hard word" by Dumbya.

Chimp in Sept. 2001:

"I want justice. And there's an old poster out West… I recall, that said, 'Wanted, Dead or Alive.'"

Colin Powell on Bin Laden in Sept. 2001:

"It's not enough to get one individual, although we'll start with that one individual."

That's one hell of a LONG start...

It's time to start talking about this with everyone you know, at home and work, AGAIN.

4. The collective "we" has been letting the right wing
define the topic of conversation for FAR TOO LONG.

From gay marriage to Schiavo, these people have NO shame and NO accountability.

President Gore would have "smoked out" Bin Laden by now.

President Kerry would be on it, no doubt.

But we're stuck with the Chimp.

7. Me thinks they have Bin Laden stashed some where, and bring him
out for special occasions.... like a 43% approval rate for you know who....

9. Bin Laden can't be captured; he's this administration's "Goldstein"
Capturing Bin Laden would mean an end to the war with EastAsia, which would be double-plus ungood for coffee and Victory Chocolate rationing.

10. What would the media be saying if this was the Clinton Administration?
Remember the hostages during the Carter years? Day after day we never heard the last of it. Until Reagan got power. Hostages were taken during his eight years. But not a peep from the press then.

12. I know for a fact where the world's #1 terrorist can be found
1600 Pennsylvania Avenue in Washington DC.

Detain him and the whole world will be able to breathe a collective sigh of relief.

21. It would feel good for the moment, but you're right
the ones really in control will simply prop up another figurehead.

And as lunatic-fringe as it sounds, the truth is they've already succeeded in taking over the world. :mad:

20. Just imagine if YOU had $100 BILLION dollars to spend
on a military operation.

Watch those planes hit the twin towers and ask yourself:

Would any sane, truly patriotic American invade IRAQ before capturing Bin Laden?

Would $100 BILLION dollars not be enough to bribe the warlords in Afghanistan/Pakistan to give him up?

Is the other 50% of America that buys this administration's BS THAT naive?
