This is one of my theories. Bush is hiding bin Laden. bin Laden is probably in Saudi Arabia. That's where his family is. Bush's motivation is to keep an enemy alive. He got rid of Saddam which inflamed the Sunnis. Now bin Laden is an ace in the hole (so to speak). He can point to an enemy to scare people.

Another theory, Bush really doesn't know what's going on in Iraq at all. Remember that Reagan had problems separating reality from fiction in his "wartime exploits". Bush is doing the same.

Saddam and bin Laden didn't get along. Bush doesn't seem to know this or care.

Another theory, bin Laden may not really exist any more. Who knows who's really sending those tapes to Al Jazeera?

Bottom line: Bush is the guy who wants to be dictator. He'll use wars and enemies to get there. He wants to be perceived as a great leader and a pres with a legacy.
His legacy will be there all right. Murderer, gangster, insane power hungry incompetent.

Hail to the Thief.
