Bush wants to get Bin Laden before he leaves office.

[dkf]

WTH was he doing all these years?

President George W Bush has enlisted British special forces in a final attempt to capture Osama Bin Laden before he leaves the White House.

Defence and intelligence sources in Washington and London confirmed that a renewed hunt was on for the leader of the September 11 attacks. “If he can say he has killed Saddam Hussein and captured Bin Laden, he can claim to have left the world a safer place,” said a US intelligence source.

Bush arrives in Britain today on the final leg of his eight-day farewell tour of Europe. He will have tea with the Queen and dinner with Gordon Brown and his wife Sarah before holding a private meeting with Brown at No 10 tomorrow and flying on to Northern Ireland.

The Special Boat Service (SBS) and the Special Reconnaissance Regiment have been taking part in the US-led operations to capture Bin Laden in the wild frontier region of northern Pakistan. It is the first time they have operated across the Afghan border on a regular basis.

1. Will they produce a mangled corpse in late September?

BBR, of course, but "DNA confirms" it's OBL. :eyes:

[Swamp Rat]

4. Set the timer to defrost.

[JDPriestly]

7. You are right. They may already be holding him on a military

vessel somewhere. Anything is possible with this bunch.

[Swamp Rat]

9. "Anything is possible with this bunch."

Oh yes, as we have already seen.

[AlCzervik]

29. he's probably sitting in the break room in Langley.

[tanyev]

23. Probably last week of October.

Just enough time to schedule a few parades and fireworks displays before the election, but not enough time for people to start asking questions.

[alittlelark]

2. The 'man' has NO SHAME....

he is a true sociopath.

[LeighAnn]

3. Wouldn't that be good for his "legacy"?

"Get him off the ice... it's time."

[Rex]

5. Oh George, just shut the fuck up and leave office soon.

You never once cared about the people in America, why would any of us believe you give a rats ass about catching OBL? More bullshit.

[Lex]

6. Oh please

[Contrary1]

8. I have only one thing to say...

Let's get him! The last week of October would be like; just so perfect.

:rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl:

[Skittles]

10. he thinks it will save his legacy

what a pathetic piece of shit

[madeline_con]

18. I hope he lives to see just how reviled he is.

No Altzheimer's for this schmuck! No heart problems, he exercises. I want him to get OLD and see how HATED he is!!

spell

[Skittles]

20. he'll never see it

he'll live in his gated bubble with all his delusions until his time ends

[Viva_Daddy]

11. He doesn't want Ben Laden captured

He wants him dead so he can't be forced to testify. If he testifies he might spill the beans.

[madeline_con]

27. He already denied having anyting to do with 9/11....

but, darn, he said it in Arabic, so half of America thinks he gloated about it. :(

[man4allcats]

12. Maybe Bin Laden

will get Bush instead. Wouldn't that be an interesting twist of fate?!

[Rex]

13. Why would he do that? George Bush is his best asset for destroying America.

[man4allcats]

15. Well I must admit...

it would be hard to argue with that.

[madeline_con]

19. Stand by for a visit from the M.I.B.

:rofl: Big Brother's watching...

[TexasObserver]

14. They've probably had him on ice for 4-5 years. October surprise?

I can imagine his corpse being thawed out and used for propaganda purposes in October, to end Dubya's narrative and impact the election.

[Disturbed]

16. Capturing or assasinating Osama might have the opposite

effect. Besides, al Q can get along without Osama. He is more of a symbolic person than an actual planner of events.

Busholini is a dunce.

[dems_rightnow]

22. They would have used it in 2004...

.... where is reelection was in severe doubt.

[papapi]

17. So dubya doesn't like mcshame trumping him....

wasn't yesterday's bin laden story about mcshame hunting him down?

[Cobalt-60]

21. He'd better get a shovel

There's reason to believe the old boy died a couple years ago.
If he were still operating, there would be genuine Bin Laden tapes
rather than the clumsy fakes produced by the Bush* gang.

[malaise]

24. That's easy

Dig him up...if he can find Osama's grave

[ColbertWatcher]

25. Top 10 reasons why Bush hasn't caught Bin Laden yet...

#10: all 6'4" Arabs attached to dialysis machines look alike

#9: bin Laden obviously has secret hiding powers

#8: he's gotten a sex change and is hiding under one of those beekeeper suits

#7: bin Laden doesn't really exist; he's an Arab Keyser Söze

#6: it's impossible to catch bin Laden, he keeps splitting like that broom in Fantasia

#5: capturing bin Laden is not that important; he's not a priority

#4: he's cheating

#3: the bin Laden construction company built Vietnam-style tunnel-cave-bunkers

#2: no one knows where he is, but when someone does know where he is, we will capture him

And, the #1 reason why Bush hasn't captured bin Laden: Nancy Pelosi said "capturing bin Laden is off the table".

28. If he shaved and wore jeans, he could move to Kansas...

and he wouldn't be noticed.

[DFW]

26. Well, come on, now!

He was gonna get around to it sooner or later.

I heard it on National Hate Radio, so it must be true.

[mmonk]

30. Why the change? Operation take over the world not working well?
