Read Hitchens now 

Pointing toward THK's dark speculation that Bush was keeping Bin Laden in a pocket somewhere for production between now and November 2, Christopher Hitchens exposes the real scandal:
What will it take to convince these people that this is not a year, or a time, to be dicking around?....

The unfortunately necessary corollary of this—that bad news for the American cause in wartime would be good for Kerry—is that good news would be bad for him. Thus, in Mrs. Kerry's brainless and witless offhand yet pregnant remark, we hear the sick thud of the other shoe dropping. How can the Democrats possibly have gotten themselves into a position where they even suspect that a victory for the Zarqawi or Bin Laden forces would in some way be welcome to them? Or that the capture or killing of Bin Laden would not be something to celebrate with a whole heart?

Read the whole thing.

I will raise the roof when OBL's lanky, diabetic, terrorist ass gets hauled before a court of U.S. justice. I will not, however, cease to cast a political eye on the Bush administration's timing and motivation for releasing information about OBL if it should happen anytime b/w now and the election.

This president has the worst foreign policy track record in U.S. History. Belatedly catching one spindly leader does not repair the damage he has done. I've got a terrifically shrill post up on the Narcissistic Bush foreign policy at Scrutiny Hooligans.

Pitching your posts in someone else's comments...bad form.

Aw, Screwy ain't a bad guy, for a lefty. It's not as though we get so many comments here that we can't deal with a little post-pitching.
