10. Isn't it odd that top Democratic leaders are the only people taking our concern seriously?

Not "flush em out of their holes" pontificators in the Scoop Jackson rank and file?

If armchair quarterbacks feel we should handle it all thru the Seals and not through espionage and police work, why aren't they participating (as they asked of Bush?) Some folks almost sound like Rumsfeld, praising a thin red line of Navy Seals for being the only tool we have to deal with terrorists, in our arsenal.

After all, we went to the trouble of facing him down alive. We had him alive. It's not like Hitler, or Awlaki, inaccessible in some unknown bunker in enemy territory.

It's more like the Hutu Interahamwe (a point NO ONE has taken me up on.)

The SEALS are a tool, which can be used in various ways.

And may I point out that the Admin seems to care more about the legalities here than the people on this board who are like:

"Kill bin Laden. That's all this was about for the past 10 years. Now we can go home."
