News services reporting today Porter Goss of Bush CIA has known pretty much where Bin Laden is/was, but we can't get him because of sovereinty.
Following up on Downing Street memo and questions as to whether Bush mislead us into Iraq, here is the argument that should be made immediately with this :
- Bush mislead us into going into Iraq, and rushed us into it, all without justification;
- He spent capital on the Iraq war, both in our prestige and credibility abroad and in the Middle East, and in our loss US Soldier lives, as well as our resources ($ 200 billion +; huge deficit);
- He took his eyes off of Bin Laden and let him escape; and
- Now we cant go get him because of Iraq; we are spread too thin (no soldiers, no funds); we can't "hurt" our "aly", Pakistan, BECAUSE THEY BACKED US IN IRAQ; and we already used up our one pre emptive war-
BUSH/REPUBS IRAQ fiasco screwed US.
