This spring, the [Bush] administration significantly increased its pressure on Pakistan to kill or capture Osama bin Laden, his deputy, Ayman Al Zawahiri, or the Taliban's Mullah Mohammed Omar, all of whom are believed to be hiding in the lawless tribal areas of Pakistan...
...This public pressure would be appropriate, even laudable, had it not been accompanied by an unseemly private insistence that the Pakistanis deliver these high-value targets (HVTs) before Americans go to the polls in November.

LOL...
Beat me to it!
Get a WH source to go on record and I will pay attention.
I read this the other day and find nothing in it that supports the claim. A couple folks saying they have been told to ramp up the pressure, and they assume it is due to the election.
I have an open mind, but I need real proof of something like this.
There just is none.
Geez..and I thought it was Kerry's French cousins who were planning this as they can't stand their faux French relative because he sold his Italian villa they used for vacations..damn I really am happy to know the truth..its BUSH!
It don't take much, do it?
I almost never do this, but this troll deserves a response in absentia:
Hiram, you just don't get it. That's what makes you feel stupid. This forum, in my opinion, is not for debating the Left. It is for defeating the Left. We tried debating the Left, for forty years. It got us called racistsexistbigothomophobehater and any other epithet the Left could come up with. The Left believes those that disagree with them are not merely in error, but in sin. The Left views its positions as so clearly, cosmically, unquestionably correct that anyone that disagrees with them must be doing it for evil motives.
After a while, we got sick of it. Somehow, on the scene arrived men and women who were no longer afraid of these foul names and what the New York Times would say. They began to lead others, who stood up and said, 'No More'. No more corruption of our children, no more treason, no more theft of the means of production, no more coddling criminals so they'd vote for the Left, no more installing the religion of Atheism as a state religion. No more.
One of these leaders founded this forum, and through it, like-minded individuals have banded together to discuss strategy, plan activities, debate (sometimes very forcefully) amongst themselves and enjoy each other's company. None of this pertains to you. We do not enjoy your company, we will not debate you because it is pointless. Your mind is corrupt and shall remain so.
Wait somewhere else for the final collapse of the Left. It is coming. The Left's hold on the educational system, the government and public opinion is being dismantled. Brick by brick, lie by lie, fool by fool, the edifice the Left has erected is being slowly, carefully, patiently destroyed. People are waking up, and when they do, they join forums like this one.
So, begone menace. And good riddance. Go someplace like democraticunderground.com and wallow in the hate, filth, profanity and evil that is so apparent there. You'll find none here.
Feelings.
Nothing more than...feelings.
Trying to confirm that you
are stupid.
The worst thing about trolls is that they don't hang around to read my (low down) opinion of them.
Just dropped by to admire the fireworks!...
I wonder how that one will play in Poughkeepsie.
Welcome to FR, pull up a chair, get your favorite beverage (and/or crack pipe) and sit a spell. You might learn something.

How can you be in two places at once,
when you're not anywhere at ALLLLLLLLLLLL.

There is no need, Hiram. Obviously you have handled that task quite nicely by yourself.
Kind of like sex, huh?
You, on the other hand, would probably vote for bin Laden.
Excellent work.
Miss your mommy?
Then you shall have them, Brother Kitten!
Look around,
Leaves are brown,
There's a stain of Troll on the ground...
Dangit, ah done missed anuther 'un!
Timpad, old FRiend, that was a most magnificent bit of wordcraft. Thank you!
