<snip>

Top Obama advisers are eager to begin a strategic shift in counter-terrorism policy with a much greater focus and commitment of resources to going after al Qaeda and Osama bin Laden in the Pakistani tribal region.

Officials say the President-elect will learn the CIA still has no specific information on the whereabouts of bin Laden but has a much better set of leads on the location of bin Laden's deputy Ayman al-Zawahari.

1. You know ... we just don't know where he is

and we don't spend that much time thinking about him

2. But John Mccain said in the debate he knew where Bin Laden was! We'll just ask him!

7. !

Thank you.

It doesn't matter if they don't know now. The point is that finding him is a top priority. He killed 3000 people on our shores. He's bankrolled worldwide terror acts and plots and inspired thousands of social rejects to join in on his crazy cause.

The president needs to order it on day one: find that fucker and kill him or bring him in. No more excuses; get it done.

10. The plan: first take a big box and prop it up with a stick with a string tied to it. Then you take

a bag peas and sprinkle them around under the box. When Osama hides under the box to take a pea, pull the string!

3. Arrest McCain. He's withholding that info.

Isn't that aiding and abetting?

4. Obama to CIA: Yeah, I noticed...

5. I hope President Obama does some reshuffling in the intelligence community

If nothing else, the current crew have proved to be criminally incompetent morons.

6. Oh joy, no Osama but we know where the 23rd #2 man is! Anybody smell a setup?

8. Not this shit again. We keep on getting their #2's.

9. But McCain has a "Secret Plan To Catch Bin Laden" (TM) n/t

[sabra]

13. I think McCain will have a cabinet position in the Obama administration

Chief "I will follow bin Laden to gates of hell" official

[Ian David]

15. Put McCain in charge of The Bin Laden Task Force, stationed in Afghanistan.

He can drive around in a golfcart and everything.

11. Silly CIA. Why don't they just ask John McCain? He knows

where Bin Laden is and he knows how to catch him too, or so he says.

12. Perhaps Obama should get a new man/woman to direct the CYA?

obviously the present one isn't doing enough? The ordinary workers in the CYA are of course!

[peace13]

14. Maybe they should ask Carl Rove! n/t

[high density]

16. ABC News said that bin Laden would release a tape "to stay relevant"

Their wish did not come to fruition.

17. This can be a good thing.. when/if Bin Laden is caught then it is impossible for Shrub to try and

claim any credit at all


This is proof that the current administration has don't nothing to catch him. The credit will be all Obama's if/when Bin Laden is caught
