How can Dubya bring Bin Laden to justice when he's the criminal?

I'm no fan of Bush, but putting him in the same league as Bin Laden gives feul to the right in their claims that liberals are idiots.

When I see statements like this, winky emoticon and all, I can't help but agree with them.

Sorry Stewart,

This must be an off day for you. Let the thread die a quite death.

Has bush done enough to bring Osama bin Laden to justice?

Simple question of opinion... Why would you want the thread to die a quiet death?

Since he has not been brought to justice, how can anyone have done enough?


Oh and I know it's not Forum Decorum to correct one's typos, but captilizing Bin Laden's name and not Bush's is sort of a freudian mistake

I'll do you the courtesy of a civil answer Stewart.

In a word "NO". Considering that after 9-11 he stood tall......well as tall as a short guy can, he puffed out his chest, and he PROMISED all Americans and indeed the whole world, but especially HIS FELLOW MERCANS, He , George dubya bush would catch Bin Laden and make him pay. I havent seen any headlines claiming to have caught him..............hmmmmm poor effort Bush.

Well we may shortly have Presient Obama who I am sure will be successful in his efforts to deliver up Bin-Laden for justice soon enough.

Out of interest how long should we give Obama before his efforts should be declared as not 'enough'?

What about 18 months say, with the renewed proper and appropriate direction of intelligence and soldiers in Pakistan/Afghanistan?

Edited(as not worth it)
Very good question of how long do we give him too...I don't know what the correct measurment tool is!

I think the last two administrations have been lacking in an organized, intelligent approach to capture bin Laden. Yes, we are up against a secret and underground network the likes of which we have not dealt with before. Maybe I've seen too many James Bond movies, but I think it can be done with a small, more forceful effort combining US military intelligence and that of our allies.

Yup..its a rhetorical question at best......All the votes should be that not enough has been done..without having to concede that GW Bush and his administration have, or have not, done what is most responsibly and wisely required....the question is far too complex for a simple, "sound-bite", spooner-type poll...
