Bush "not concerned" about Osama - unless he's is in trouble politically.
Edited on Thu Jan-19-06 05:48 PM by mzmolly
Republicans are already, "conveniently" using OBL's "convenient" threat as an excuse for domestic spying.

So, might this be a time to remind Amerikunz of what GW Bush said just 4 months after 911?

White House Press Release ~ March 13, 2002

Q - But don't you believe that the threat that bin Laden posed won't truly be eliminated until he is found either dead or alive?

A - THE PRESIDENT: Well, as I say, we haven't heard much from him. And I wouldn't necessarily say he's at the center of any command structure. And, again, I don't know where he is. I -- I'll repeat what I said. I truly am not that concerned about him.


Either Osama murdered innocent 3000 Americans on 911, or he's not a threat.
We can't have it BOTH ways.

1. The last time I saw Osama
my heart was full of hope.
It was a bleak October
And the dope was on the rope.

3. Last Time I Saw Him
Last time I saw him
He sweetly kissed my lips
Last time I saw him
He said:"I'll be back for more of this"
Last time I saw him
We were crying at the bus
I knew he hated leaving
But he had to set us up

I gave him money
I know I invested well
Mamma doesn't trust him
But he loves me I can tell

Each time the greyhound
Arrives at nine o' clock
But I don't start my crying
'Till that last man's gotten off

Last time I saw him
Last time I saw my honey
Last time I saw him
He was greyhound-bound
But I'm still waiting here
Without a fear
That bus will someday turn around

I had no letter
It's been six months, maybe better
I try forgetting him
But I love him more then ever

I have decided
I've waited long enough
If there was nothing wrong
He would return right on that bus

There must be trouble
So I'm leavin' on the double
If he can't get to me
I know he needs me desperately

Last time I saw him
Last time I saw my honey
Last time I saw him
He was looking fine
And as he waved goodbye
He said don't cry
I'm coming back, no rain or shine

Last time I saw him
Last time I saw my honey
Last time I saw him
He was greyhound-bound
And as he waved goodbye
He said don't cry
I'm coming back, no rain or shine

La de da, la da do
Do la da da, da da da

Last time I saw him
He was looking fine
And as he waved goodbye
He said don't cry
I'm coming back, no rain or shine

9. Osama was our ally during the Soviet Afghanistan war.
We and the Saudis with Osama bin Laden, as their representatives poured an estimated $40 billion into the Afghani mujahedeen fighters cause, which also included the Taliban. This was started in the Carter administration.

We were trying to break the Soviet Union and succeeded, but look at the mess that got left behind. By the time this was accomplished Reagan/Bush had taken over and in true Repuke fashion, promised to help the Afghanis rebuild their nation, but instead left them high and dry to fight a civil war, which the Taliban and Osama won.

It seems the Republican Reagan/Bush government had allowed the Taliban and Osama to become sovereign in that nation and in Pakistan. It appears to me that Osama is a tool and is being protected by this Bush administration.

All that hand holding and kissing of Saudi Princes on American soil isn't for naught. It's Bush bowing obeisance to his real king and protecting Osama in the interim.

Look at how Osama first came into the spotlight. Early in 1980 Osama bin Laden appears on the scene and begins providing support for the mujahedeen and is backed by the Saudi royal family. It is believed he is handpicked for the job by Prince Turki al Faisal, head of the Saudi’s secret service. We and the Saudis are at the bottom of this plan.

Osama it turns out is an ally of the Bush Family empire. I have no doubt any more in my mind.
