If we do, there will be a cacophony of voices blaming it on "Bush's war" in Iraq.
There will be no leftwingers singing on the capitol steps, at least not America the Beautiful.
I deal with a fellow at work who promotes this drivel. "We should be looking for bin Laden!" is what I hear. Or "we should have 200,000 troops if Afghanistan!" is another. When reason fails you will hear "Did YOU serve in combat?", etc., etc.
Killing bin Laden, although a good thing, will not stop radical Islam. And you don't do that by putting 200,000 troops on the ground in Afghanistan.
