3. it was incredibly stupid not to have used that in an ad in '04
especially right after the debate, with that clip of W sneering that he never said it, "its another of those... exaggerations."

unbelievably dumb to have let this blunder slip into obscurity - all his tough on terror talk, and its suddenly "not that concerned about him?" The fuck?

it would've been a devastating ad.

Trying to talk to moveon people about it was depressing - they were so fucking condescending.

4. Translation, since Bush says the exact OPPOSITE of the truth:
Quote #1: We ain't lookin' and we don't want to "find" him.

#2: I know exactly where he is, heh heh, and I'm NOT tellin'!

#3: I'm very concerned about him 'cuz he just had a tricky kidney transplant at Bethesda.
