Bush once vowed to capture bin Laden dead or alive.
Now he and Karl Rove only haul him out when he’s politically useful.

The Osama Card
Expect the Republicans to use the specter of the terror leader to
frighten voters ahead of the elections.
By Eleanor Clift
Newsweek
It will soon be five years since the 9/11 attacks thrust America into
a state of perpetual anxiety, and the man who inspired and
masterminded the carnage that awful day remains at large.
He’s almost certainly in Pakistan, way up on the northern border,
almost to China, and with the November elections approaching, the name
of Osama bin Laden will once again surface as a powerful symbol of
who’s with us and who’s against us.
_____________________________________________________________
Yeah, but exactly where *is* Osama? The Republican adminstration is
responsible for getting him. But, somehow, they seem to have failed,
haven't they. Haven't heard much from the Repug world about this, have
we.
