How exactly did GWB succeed? OBL is still at large. That is not a success.

Using that analogy, we didn’t win WWII unless we captured Hitler.

The object of war is not to catch every leader of the opposition, it is to defeat the enemy army, and to prevent them from being able to inflict harm on your people.

Anybody can go into hiding. It took us years to find Saddam Hussein even when we had control of his country — but we had defeated his government long before we caught him.

Leaving aside the argument that OBL is most likely dead, and has been for some years. Contrary to what the left says, getting OBL is NOT a measurement of success, it is just an outcome; one of many. Dislike Bush all you want; Lord knows there are enough reasons, his strategy of engaging Al Queda forces gutted them in Iraq, Afghanistan and around the world. Their capabilites have been curtailed, their leadership has been killed, and the most best and brightest of their fighters were wasted in battles fought far from the American homeland.

Now, all that is truly being squandered by the Democrats and the Pres—ent in Chief through a half assed strategy that doesn’t look towards victory and ROEs that get US servicemen killed..

OBL is a dead as Elvis Presley.

A voice on a tape is no proof of the continued existence of either person.
