twitterLetter: With bin Laden free, Bush failing
Wednesday, Aug. 18, 2004 | 8:56 a.m.
How does President Bush manage to hold such high poll numbers on "fighting terrorism" when the main architect of the World Trade Center and Pentagon attacks is still running free and planning more attacks around the world?
Also, half of the time since 9/11 has been spent concentrating entirely on conquering Iraq and capturing Saddam Hussein, who had nothing to do with 9/11.
If Bush had sent into Afghanistan the same force he sent in to Iraq immediately after 9/11, instead of relying on local Afghan dissidents, he might have captured Osama bin Laden in a few months.
I daresay Bush deserves no more than a D in fighting real terrorism.
