Bush, let me refresh your memory about what you said about Bin Laden
This is from the White House web page:
http://www.whitehouse.gov/news/releases/2002/03/20020313-8.html

3/12/2002

"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?

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.  I know he is on the run.  I was concerned about him, when he had taken over a country.  I was concerned about the fact that he was basically running Afghanistan and calling the shots for the Taliban."

Mr Bush - I remember very well that press conference and I'm just a humble peasant in your kingdom. You, sir, are a cowardly, lying sack of shit.

1. Another refresher course
Here's what they all were saying 6 months after they failed to "smoke em out"

Bush "No longer concerned about Bin Laden"
Rummy "Bin Laden has been neutralized"
Cheney "Bin Laden himself isn't that big a threat."
