Bush Says He Wants to Get Bin Laden Now

This man has no conscience. He didn't care to get Osama bin Laden for seven long years and now the Times Online in the UK is reporting Bush is putting on the pressure to get Osama before he leaves office. He wants it for his legacy. It was never about those people who died on September 11th. This has always been about George Bush's terrible and despicable ego. It's easy to see why the country is repulsed by this man:




Here are the quotes where Bush said he didn't care about getting Osama bin Laden. He wasn't concerned about him. How did the country and the press let him get away with that? Imagine if a Democrat had said that?

The press claims they're better now after the lessons they learned from how they covered the lead-up to the Iraq War. In fact, they've learned nothing. Today, Maj. Gen. Antonio Taguba said the Bush administration committed "war crimes." War crimes!

Imagine if a Democrat was accused of that? Now, how do you think the press is going to cover this (with the obvious exception of McClatchy Newspapers, whose coverage has been exemplary)? I guarantee you'll hardly hear a peep.

The Bush administration soiled the good name of America. Their ought to be a price for that. But they are just going to walk out of that White House as if they did nothing wrong. If that doesn't make you angry, you're not paying attention.
