Who Will Take The Credit if The Al-Queda men are caught?
Isn't this the Pakistani army doing all the work? I just heard that there is little input from US soldiers on this "raid".

My question is: will Chimpy take all the credit if and when there is a capture?

1. Actually worse than misbegotten credit may happen
If the fighting in Pakistan takes too long, civil war may happen there. A civil war that involves a nuclear power.

2. Of course he will
At least politically. But so what? Capturing BL would change exactly nothing. The bombings since Saddam's capture haven't dwindled, but increased and spread to Europe. Dragging BL in for a humiliating mug shot would be like petrol on the fire. I think even the most thick-skulled proponents of Bu$h's Terra War are beginning to realize this now.
