Bush took his eye off of the real central front of the war on terrorism. We just seen Bin Laden making threats on video. This Adminisration has failed to catch Osama Bin Laden dead or alive. etc.?

1. Done
Saturday morning in Wisconsin, Kerry had his backbone back. At a rally on a muddy football field in Appleton, Kerry made the point that many in his party were waiting to hear from him: If Bush hadn't diverted the military's attention from the war on terrorism to the war in Iraq, bin Laden wouldn't be making any videotapes today.

"As I have said for two years now, Osama bin Laden and al-Qaida were cornered in the mountains of Tora Bora, and it was wrong to outsource the job of capturing them to Afghan warlords who a week earlier were fighting against us," Kerry said. Instead, Bush should have relied on U.S. troops, he said, soldiers "who wanted to avenge America for what happened in New York and Pennsylvania and Washington."

3. Question for the week. Why is this man still alive.
He's not only alive but free and clearly capable of contacting the outside world whenever he wants to.

He's been spending his time resting up--Osama looks pretty good for a dialysis patient who's been supposedly hopping from cave to cave because of Bush's intense manhunt.

He's been catching up on his reading--did I catch some of Kevin Phillips themes in his announcement.

Bin Laden's been enjoying the occaisional movie (Farenheit 9/11)

Now he's out there playing political pundit. Maybe Chris Matthews can book him as a guest on Hardball or he'll make an appearance on the Daily Show.

We have to push the reality that Osama Bin Laden is out there and dangerous because Bush is a screw up and a liar.
