Reply #4: bin Laden means nothing to the corrupt Bush administration [View All]

Until he needs to be captured. Of course, then there will be that whole messy business of proving that he had anything to do with the September 11 attacks* and making sure that nothing can be traced back to the Bushes, their political cronies, backers or benefactors, and that could take some doing.

My prediction is that bin Laden will never be captured alive. And despite all of his family's public pronouncements about their deeply religious beliefs and the afterlife, they don't want Osama shuffling off his mortal coil one minute before his body actually fails him.

*Yeah, yeah, I know, conventional wisdom and all that -- but it's one thing to know something in your heart, and quite another to prove it in a court of law. Besides, what evidence have YOU seen that bin Laden was behind the hijackers, not just supportive of what they did?
