And you “knew” he was killed at Tora Bora, I’m guessing.

“Believe” all you want.

The big question in my mind is why Bush and the Republicans never said as much, while all those commie bass-turds like Obama bin Lyin’ strutted and preened about “you guys couldn’t even kill Bin Laden”.

Let's say you were 98% sure he was dead.

Aside from a rise in the polls, what would the upside be of announcing he was dead? You'd have Obama/Reid/Pelosi all saying the war on terror was over and expenditures would be a huge waste of money.

On the other hand, if you were wrong, and a tape of OBL obviously demonstrating that he was alive, maybe standing infront of a T.V. with Bush announcing that he's dead, laughing, that would be a dissaster.

So, they've drawn a conclusion and they're almost certainly right, but they're doing something that's prudent rather than for political gain.

And you “knew” he was killed at Tora Bora, I’m guessing.

Hey, some of us reason things out on availible evidence, some of us "guess". That's why they make chocolate and vanilla.
