Remember the Main!... criminal

Nothing is more damaging to the prestige of the US than the simple fact that Osama bin Laden remains at large and still dangerous, nearly 6 years after masterminding the deaths of thousands of Americans. Never in history has such a blow remained unpunished without exposing an effete and corrupt victim-state. Rome destroyed Spartacus and his rebel army; even the new American republic brought the Barbary pirates to heel from half a world away. Yet this tragically misguided administration spends its minuscule credibility and tiresome rhetoric claiming that leaving Iraq without “finishing the job” will weaken America. Iraq was a blunder, but Hussein is deposed and it is (and was) free of WMD. We're done there. Let's get back to job #1.
