bush let osama escape at tora bora then said he wasn't concerned about him.


also thanking the military and intelligence establishment but no one thanking president obama. like hes just an after thought not worth mentioning.

1. make em suck on the facts

"I don't know where bin Laden is. I have no idea and really don't care. It's not that important. It's not our priority."
- G.W. Bush, 3/13/02


“Today, at my direction, the United States launched a targeted operation against that compound in Abbottabad, Pakistan,” Mr. Obama said.
“A small team of Americans carried out the operation with extraordinary courage and capability. No Americans were harmed. They took care
to avoid civilian casualties. After a firefight, they killed Osama bin Laden and took custody of his body.”

C.I.A. Closes Unit Focused on Capture of bin Laden

By MARK MAZZETTI
Published: July 4, 2006

WASHINGTON, July 3 — The Central Intelligence Agency has closed a unit that for a decade had the mission of hunting Osama bin Laden and his top lieutenants, intelligence officials confirmed Monday.

The unit, known as Alec Station, was disbanded late last year and its analysts reassigned within the C.I.A. Counterterrorist Center, the officials said.

2. People should be e-mailing
and posting on facebook or twitter, the video of Bush saying he doesn't know or care where OBL is. That it's not his priority. At every opportunity that thing should be posted.

CIA Closes Unit Dedicated to Capturing bin Laden

There is another sign that George Bush is not serious about capturing Osama bin Laden “dead or alive.” The New York Times reports on the closing of a unit established in 1996 to attempt to capture bin Laden.
