Let's face it, there's something treacherously suspicious about the Bush & bin Laden relationship. Apart from Bush's blunder (?) which allowed bin Laden to escape from Afghanistan, there are tons of unanswered questions here.
For example, just why did Bush fly plane loads of bin Laden's relatives out of our country a mere few hours after 9/11?
And speaking of 9/11, we should never forget that Bush was in the political toilet before the 9/11 catastrophe. And then, thanks to Bin Laden and 9/11, president pinhead suddenly became a cardboard patriotic figure.
And just how difficult can it be to run down ONE MAN in going on seven years with the state of the art intelligence capabilities and nearly limitless fire power of our country?
And it's international common knowledge that the Bush Royal Family and the Saudi Royal Family are simply two sides of the same coin.
And everyone agrees that Osama's antics have been the prime rationalization for the Likudnik lobby's neocon juggernaut during the last several years.
And even barnyard animals understood that Bin Laden's "photo op" right before the 2004 Presidential election probably helped Bush to steal the election more than anything else. Always nice to have friends, isn't it?
So just what is this incestuous marriage between these two men?
At least, unlike Judas Joe Lieberman, we don't have any pictures of Bush giving bin Laden a big, smacking kiss.
