I think Hell just froze over....

I'm linking to a Free Republic post. :-)

According to my calendar, just four months from now we will be marking the sixth anniversary of the biggest terrorist attack in history and the worst attack of any kind on American soil.

The mastermind of and inspiration for that attack is Osama bin Laden.

Yet, he still has not been captured or killed.

If there is one man in this world I do not want to see die of natural causes, it is bin Laden. And I think most Americans would agree with that.

Nevertheless, our top elected officials, including President Bush, demonstrate no particular concern about finding bin Laden. With all of the resources of the U.S. intelligence agencies, our spy satellites, our military infrastructure and our special forces, we have either been unable to find the perpetrator of this mass murder or unwilling.

Now a leading Republican presidential candidate affirms that we have better things to do with our time and energies than catch bin Laden.

Mitt Romney, the flip-flopping former governor of Massachusetts, says the U.S. would only be slightly safer if bin Laden were caught because another terrorist would rise to fill his shoes.

"It's not worth moving heaven and earth, spending billions of dollars, just trying to catch one person," he explained.

Well, for starters, there would be no need to move heaven, because bin Laden is not there and never will be. I have that on good authority. So all we really have to do is move earth. In my opinion, we should move as much earth as we need to find bin Laden. Then we should cover him up in that earth as quickly as possible.

Unlike certain other blogs, the Freep actually encourages a diversity of opinion.
