Bush Mum on Pakistan's Hunt for Bin Laden

By JENNIFER LOVEN, Associated Press Writer

WASHINGTON - President Bush (news - web sites) on Saturday defended Pakistan's cooperation in the hunt for Osama bin Laden (news - web sites) despite the inability of U.S. and Pakistani troops to find the al-Qaida leader who, Bush once declared, was wanted dead or alive.


.....The trail has gone cold in the more than three years since U.S. forces toppled the Taliban, bin Laden's patrons in Afghanistan (news - web sites), after the attacks of Sept. 11, 2001. Bin Laden, who masterminded the strikes, is believed to be hiding in the wild mountainous region along the border between Afghanistan and Pakistan.

2. I thought the title meant that the Babs was going to comment...
which wouldn't be a ludicrous expectation, since she's chimed in on other political/military events.

3. I don't trust Musharraf one bit
I think shrub is using him to bolster his "coalition of the willing" rhetoric. His pardoning of Khan tells me he is not doing what he says he is doing and I believe he knows where bin Laden is.

5. Bid Laden is probably staying in his guest house
Pakistanis don't want Bin Laden captured. Most Arabs don't want to help us, when will they figure this out? Actually, about 85-90% of everyone in the world wishes Bush would drop dead and sure as hell don't want to lift a finger to help him spread his perverted idea of "freedom"
