October Surprise Alert
“October Surprise Alert”
That wouldn’t surprise me in the least. That said, for an electorate outraged over inaction on jobs etc., I don’t picture that the capture or death of either of these jokers this late in the game would magically turn around electoral prospects for the Dems. At this juncture, Obama is so lacking in credibility that if anything there might be a backlash against what is perceived to be an obvious political ploy.
What Obama essentially has proven over the past 2 years is that even a massive infusion of new troops into Afghanistan hasn’t sufficed to run down the man that candidate Obama implied could be captured with ease if only we hadn’t diverted resources to Iraq.
In reality, we’d quickly defeated the Taliban early on and Bush never foolishly aspired to building a democracy in one of the most backward countries on the planet. It’s not likely anyone would have thought adding 30,000 troops back in 2003 purely for the purposes of capturing bin Laden would have been a sensible use of military resources.
We pay the Pakis billions in “aid” while they and Iran fund weaponry and C4 for Talibans who use it to kill our troops. The Muslim killing merry go round never stops. It is long past time to kill them all.
