Adminstration plans Bin Laden Capture to coincide with Democratic National Convention

Now listen up: Read this National Review article, Pakistan For Bush and tell me again why you are going to vote for George Bush?

This should provide some context for why I think this administration will use any, I mean any, means neccessary to maintain power. That's right, they will even Pressure Pakistan to capture Osama Bin Laden before the election and preferrably, during the National Democratic Convention.

A veritable parade of US dignitaries have shuttled through Islamabad to deliver the message. Colin Powell, George Tenent, Cofer Black, Christina Rocca have all told Parvez to put up before november. From the article:

This public pressure would be appropriate, even laudable, had it not been accompanied by an unseemly private insistence that the Pakistanis deliver these high-value targets (HVTs) before Americans go to the polls in November. The Bush administration denies it has geared the war on terrorism to the electoral calendar. "Our attitude and actions have been the same since September 11 in terms of getting high-value targets off the street, and that doesn't change because of an election," says National Security Council spokesman Sean McCormack. But The New Republic has learned that Pakistani security officials have been told they must produce HVTs by the election. According to one source in Pakistan's powerful Inter-Services Intelligence (ISI), "The Pakistani government is really desperate and wants to flush out bin Laden and his associates after the latest pressures from the U.S. administration to deliver before the [upcoming] U.S. elections."

Now you understand the warning I issue below? Pressuring Pakistan is a great idea. But let me tell you, any president that would wait two years pull out the stops to capture the person responsible for killing three thousand of our citizens in order to win an election deserves to be impeached.

It is the most cynical use of power imaginable. Do you get it all of you Bush voters? He waited two years to really try to capture Osama Bin Laden so he could use it as a campaign event. I really can't even imagine the level of personal corruption it takes to conceive and execute such a plan.
