14. Lest we forget: some statements of *'s about OBL
Here are a few quotes of President Bush regarding Bin laden:

"The most important thing is for us to find Osama bin Laden. It is our number one priority and we will not rest until we find him."

- G.W. Bush, 9/13/01

"I want justice...There's an old poster out West, as I recall, that said, 'Wanted: Dead or Alive,'"

- G.W. Bush, 9/17/01, UPI

"...Secondly, he is not escaping us. This is a guy, who, three months ago, was in control of a county . Now he's maybe in control of a cave. He's on the run. Listen, a while ago I said to the American people, our objective is more than bin Laden. But one of the things for certain is we're going to get him running and keep him running, and bring him to justice. And that's what's happening. He's on the run, if he's running at all. So we don't know whether he's in cave with the door shut, or a cave with the door open -- we just don't know...."

- Bush, in remarks in a Press Availablity with the Press Travel Pool,

The Prairie Chapel Ranch, Crawford TX, 12/28/01, as reported on

official White House site

"I don't know where bin Laden is. I have no idea and really don't care. It's not that important. It's not our priority."

- G.W. Bush, 3/13/02

"I am truly not that concerned about him."

12. The light is better there.
It's like the old saw about the drunk on his hands and knees under the lamp post looking for his keys, when asked where did you lose them, the drunk pointed across the street, and then when questioned further, then why are you looking over here, the drunk answered, because the light is better over here.

8. I'd say "unbelievable", but
I passed that stage a long time ago, nothing shocks me anymore

just remember these quotes:

"I don't know where bin Laden is. I have no idea and really don't care. It's not that important. It's not our priority."
- G.W. Bush, 3/13/02

"I am truly not that concerned about him."
- G.W. Bush, repsonding to a question about bin Laden's whereabouts,
3/13/02

24. What was even more revealing to me was right at the very end
when one of the reporters was begging for some news as to the condition of Bin Laden and Frau Fran ran out of the press room. The first thing that popped into my head was "Bin Laden's already dead and she doesn't want to deal with that line of questioning".

28. Osama is dead. Long live Osama.
Osama is now a Legend that will live forever for the Fundie Islamists. He is also useful for the Neo Fascists as a symbol of Hate and perpetual War.
