GAO: Bush lacks strategy to wipe out bin Laden sanctuary

[Gunit Hussein Sangh]

WASHINGTON — The Bush administration doesn't have a comprehensive strategy for eliminating Osama bin Laden's sanctuary in Pakistan's tribal region and preventing the region from being used for launching terrorist attacks on the United States, the investigative arm of Congress said Thursday.

President Bush and his senior lieutenants frequently claim that eradicating the threat that bin Laden's al Qaida terrorist network poses to United States and its allies is their top national-security priority.

But in a scathing report, the Government Accountability Office said there was no plan that "includes all elements of national power — diplomatic, military, intelligence, development assistance, economic and law enforcement support — called for by the various national-security strategies and Congress."

I reckon dear leader wasn't joking when he claimed he didn't spend much time thinking about the dude who killed 3,000 americans.

And why did you need a GAO study to tell you this? 

[wow]

I did not know Bush was NATO?
The GAO doesn't know NATO is in Afghanistan/Pakistan?
This sounds like Obama's campaign come up with this bone-headed attack

I agree, gunit.

People can defend this loser president on this un-American war all they want, but the opinion polls show that neither he nor this war are popular anymore.   Thank God for that.

But this doesn't matter, because people who still support the war and this president think that 70% of Americans need babysitters.

that's something I noticed about the conservatives everywhere, not just on this board ... when facts are not on their side ... they resort to school yard taunts that most people stop doing in the 3rd grade and trying to shift the blame to someone else.

And when you point it out conservatives goes WWWAAAAAHHHHHH  .. you're a liberal meanie
