the real reason is that Bush NEEDS an external threat to further his policies. He will never extinguish that threat - because to do so would cause a groundswell to end the war.....and that my friend is something he would never ever want to do. His oil cronies are swimming in profits - and that is the way they want to keep it going......for ever.
4. You're preaching to the choir. I'm talking about the argument to
use with our more conservative friends and neighbors who are finally turning against the war, and are still worried about OBL. We need to remind THEM that OBL is still a threat because we took our eyes off the ball.
I agree with you that Bush doesn't want to capture OBL, but that argument probably won't go very far outside of places like DU.
