One of the biggest flip-flops in U.S. history: from "wanted dead or alive"

[milkyway]

to "I don't think about him all that much." How can bush get away with it? 9/11 happened on his watch, and he hasn't even got the guy who did it three years later. Now we find out this from the Sunday London Times:

Bin Laden ‘no longer top target’

<snip>
President George W Bush was so eager to capture the Al-Qaeda leader before next month’s election that the strength of the US forces in Afghanistan was almost doubled to 19,000 men.

However, deteriorating security in Iraq has forced the Pentagon to move Taskforce 121, the commando team behind the capture of Saddam, away from Afghanistan. It has returned to Iraq to search for Abu Musab al-Zarqawi, the terrorist believed to be responsible for the murder of Kenneth Bigley.

Yet that dumb fuck has the nerve to strut around at the debate like he's some kind of western gunslinger. What a fraud.

4. thanks, that's a great commercial. I wish they would use flip-flop

in it and play it endlessly. It's amazing to see bush from March 2002. He looks at least ten years younger than he did Friday night. Four years of monumental failure have taken a heavy toll on both his physical and his mental health.
