bush said "more than three-quarters of al-Qaida's key members
and associates have been detained or killed."

WTF? Any proof for this? Did he just pull that out of his ASS?

1. Depends on how you define "key"
Bin Laden and Al Zawacki (the Egyptian doctor -- I forget how to spell his name, he hasn't been in the news for so damn long). So that means that that the Bush administration will take six other Al Qaeda members that we killed or captured and say that those were the rest of the key members. Six out of eight - 75 percent, all is well.

Of course, they are getting plenty of resumes for all their job openings these days.

5. I'd love to see an "Al Qaeda" roster dated before 2001
....and compare it to their arrest record.
