Why, Exactly...

Why, exactly, do President Bush's approval ratings on National Security go UP every time there's a new public statement from Osama bin Ladin?

Let's see, it's been over four years since we were hit by terrorists, four years since President Bush stood before the nation and told us that we wouldn't rest until bin Ladin and the rest who were guilty of this crime were brought to justice.

It's been about three years since President Bush said that he honestly just wasn't that concerned about Osama bin Ladin.

It's been more than two years since the President decided to invade a country that had NOTHING to do with the attacks of 9/11, instead of finishing the task that he promised us in the days after 9/11 he would get done.

We're hundreds of billions of dollars poorer, many fine young men and women are dead, and yet somehow a reminder that Bush has done next to nothing to get the mastermind of the 9/11 attacks serves to BOLSTER his approval ratings on national security?

It makes no sense! Every time I see another video or hear another audio tape from bin Ladin it reminds me of the extent to which this President has dropped the ball, let us down, failed to accomplish what he'd promised to accomplish.
