Well, I guess we agree. As I said in my original post, if Bin Laden were KNOWN to be dead (i.e., proof exists), Bush & Co. would be trumpeting it from the rooftops.

In that regard, sure. But I refuse to believe he's holed up in Pakistan or the hinterlands of Kashmir or Afghanistan.

Unless someone can show me otherwise, I've got to believe he's as dead as Jimmy Hoffa, and in just about as many pieces.

The ideal time to announce OBL's death, would be closer to the Nov. elections. If Clinton was Pres and fighting this war (a very scary thought) he'd wait for maximum poll effect.
