Actually if Bush had concentrated the troops in Afghanistan in the first place instead of a diversion into Iraq, we would have Bin Laden by now and we would not be facing these problems now.

LOL Well you just know everything, now don't you?
*LMAO* LMAO* *LMAO* ok wow, where does answering a question with a question come into play but politics. your very 1st statement was "Actually if Bush had concentrated the troops in Afghanistan in the first place instead of a diversion into Iraq, we would have Bin Laden by now and we would not be facing these problems now" so let's really start to discuss "Well you just know everything, now don't you?
What makes you think they don't know where he is already?" oh wait, we already started to discuss it but you choose to answer questions with questions.
First of all, the CIA operatives probably do know where Bin Laden is.
Probably...

You seem to have strong feelings about bin Ladin. Do you think Bush, McCain and the Republicans do not bear responsibility for not catching him? They controlled the Executive for the past 8 years. Until just under two years ago they controlled Congress and the Senate.
If your answer is that somehow Bush, McCain and the Republicans, remarkably, are not responsible for us not catching bin Ladin over 7 years after 9/11, would your answer be the same if Democrats held similar power?
PS Fyi I thought Reagan was a decent President, Ike was a good President, TR was a very good President, and Lincoln was an excellent President, before I am attacked instead of addressing my points.
Gee, it's funny, you know....that's EXACTLY what I said about John McCain, when he said on national TV that he "knew how to get Bin Laden" -- why in the HECK aren't you at the Pentagon or in the White House situation room RIGHT NOW, sharing your "knowledge" with the generals who command the forces and the Commander in Chief?
Are you really the type of guy who puts his own success above his country's security to such a degree that you're only going to share your foolproof plan to "get" Bin Laden with the rest of us if we agree to elect you President? What will happen if Obama wins? Will you take your ball and huff off home, leaving us vulnerable to further terrorist attacks from this very-wealthy financier and mastermind of terror?
Ashes where the bodies burning
No more war pigs have the power
Hand of God has sturck the hour
Day of judgement, God is calling
On their knees, the war pigs crawling Begging
"it'll be far more difficult to capture him now than it would have been 6 years ago"
And yet, I believe that then as now, if our Executive really wanted to catch bin Ladin and end the terror, they could. With Executive leadership, America could put a man on the moon even when our NASA systems probably had about as much computing power as a single laptop today. It would have been easy to nab bin Ladin had we not diverted into the disastrous war with no good end in Iraq. It would be harder to catch him today, I agree. We could still do it if our President really wanted to. This is the same President whose policies McCain supported so ardently.
