Media pushed the 'tough on terror' meme though W allowed 9-11, anthrax, BinLaden's ToraBora escape

[Kahuna]

6. I've always believed that...

1. the reporting about bin laden escaping through Tora Bora was utter nonsense. Bushso gave bin laden 5 months to hi-tail it out of Afghanistan, if he was ever there in the first place. No way do I believe that bin laden given that much time just sat around waiting to be a target.
2. I never believed that obl was hiding in caves. I always believed that he was living comfortably and that musharref knew exactly where he could be found.
3. Not only did I believe that Musharrref was protecting him, but that bush knew that his bff was protecting him, and musharref, obl and bush had an "understanding."
4. finally, I always believed that bush got musharref to get obl to make that nonsensical plea to the American people just prior to the election in 2004.
