Why so little outrage over bush's failure to get Osama or win the war?
I am still amazed at how little outrage there is over bush's glaring failure to get the man who supposedly did nine eleven, and the never ending disaster in Iraq, and amazed at how he still stands there, as if he is doing a fine job.

We here are outraged, why isn't the rest of America?

2. Good question. I can't figure it out either. It really amazes me how people
have all but forgotten OBL.

3. Their obvious lack of concern about him suggests he didn't do 9/11.
I'm just sayin', it don't look too good. If they really thought he did nine eleven, they'd have hunted him down already.

4. They are not outraged because they haven't been paying attention
Or maybe they have outrage "overload" because there is so much to be outraged about. What is truly scary is not just that there appears to be so little outrage, but the lack of critical thinking skills in reasonably intelligent people. On one end of the scale are the politically committed sheeple who write LTTEs how we all owe a debt of gratitude to * that we haven't been attacked again! On the other end are the ones who are blissfully ignorant of what is going on in the news. If it can't be told to them in a one minute sound bite, they are really not interested.
Democracy can't fully succeed with an uninformed electorate.

5. Damn near half the country is outraged
Not enough in a rational world, perhaps, but pretty significant just the same.

7. You might have missed the outcome of the 2006 elections...
but they were tipped because of Iraq.

10. Beats the hell out of me.
I wonder, I really do, what the "Remember 911" crowd (as if we could ever forget) thinks about Bush's failure to get Osama dead or alive? What do they think about that? It's been almost 6 years!
