Alright!  Finally someone has the balls to say what they really mean.

Do you think these terrorists expected GWB to look the cameras in the eye and say "I want him [Osama bin Laden] dead or alive"?

President Bush didn't say he wanted OBL "dead or alive".  He may have inferred it, but he didn't say it.

D@mn I wish I had taped that clip to see exactly what he said.

Something to the effect of:  "Just like those posters they had out west, I want him dead or alive."

Kind of a marked indifference as to the state bin Laden would arrive in.  Still, I wouldn't want the leader of the free world saying that about me.

Anyone have a direct quote?  I wish I was typing when it was replayed, instead I was cheering!

GWB is Da Man !!!

If that asshole Gore would have gotten elected, we'd be talking about economic sanctions or diplomacy...

I think GWB is better at speaking his mind, than he is speaking from the tele-prompter...

He was being a smart ass.  The reason he used the old west reference is because Sadam Hussein called him an "American Cowboy."

Personally I would have liked Bush to say "Yippe Kai Yay Mother FVCKER!"

GWB rules!

No matter exactly how he worded it, he sure as hell got his point across! I voted for Bush, and he earns more and more respect from me each day, considering how well (IMO) he is "taking care of business".
