That's what I'd like to think, but I prefer not to get my hopes up too high. But I just can't imagine them saying things like this without real good reason.

It doesn't take much to rationalize optimism. Quality staff, motivated troops, resources. What's he supposed to say?

Q: General, do you think we'll get Osama?

A: How the hell should I know? Maybe we will, maybe we won't.

That probably wouldn't fly.

A capture of that magnitude would stop the mewling over WMD's in Iraq.

Yep! Me too. When sadDEMON was caught the base was awful quite until they sprang it on the American people early that Sunday! I think this is only hopeful wishing on everyones part. It be wonderful though, especially for those family members who lost loved ones on 9-11, our country and our president! God bless and protect our military soldiers there!

Aye. They'd just be setting themselves up for failure if they didn't have a good reason to say it and Generals are generally a bit more clever than that.
