Gen. Peter J. Schoomaker, Army Chief of Staff, on captruing Osama bin Laden:
"I don't know that it's all that important, frankly."
Dick Cheney downplaying the importance of capturing Osama bin Laden:
"He's not the only source of the problem, obviously. . . . If you killed him tomorrow, you'd still have a problem with al-Qaeda."
President Bush on how important he thinks capturing Osama bin Laden is:
"So I don't know where he is. You know, I just don't spend that much time on him. ... And, again, I don't know where he is. I -- I'll repeat what I said. I truly am not that concerned about him."
"Deep in my heart I know the man's on the run, if he's alive at all...I just don't spend much time on it, really, to be honest with you."
President Bush also shut down the CIA operation trying to capture Osama bin Laden. And let him escape in Tora Bora.
If they care about capturing the man who actually attacked us on 9/11 and killed nearly 3,000 Americans, they have a funny way of showing it. Honestly, I don't know why the opposition party, the media and the American public are not absolutely outraged by this.
I don't have that problem. I am truly outraged. You might get a sense of that by watching what I think of General Schoomaker's comments here.
What I say in the video might sound harsh, but it's not nealry harsh enough. Maybe if we were all this pissed off about it, we might motivate someone in the government to care. Are they going to let Osama get away with it? And are we going to let them?
