So it ISN'T about military force?
You'd think that this quote came from someone who believed that the war on terror was an intelligence and law-enforcement operation, rather than pre-emptive military action.
“100,000 troops there in Pakistan is not the answer, it’s someone saying ‘Guess what?’ [i.e. `I know here he is’] and then the kinetic action begins.”
But it came from Fearless Leader himself, who apparently favors mockery over even his own positions. Just savor the irony of the National Review's own explanation.
On Bin Laden, Bush emphasized the importance of intelligence. Perhaps with those critics on his mind who argue that we took our eye off the ball by not committing the troops necessary to find the terror leader, Bush said [this].
