I fell asleep and might have missed it...but re: Bin Laden
Was there any mention if there are plans to continue the "hunt" for him...and "smoke him out of whatever hole he is still hiding in?" I just feel like that was a huge issue...and lately it seems unmentioned.

Obama mentioned it yesterday...about refocusing on him and Afghanistan, and even going into Pakistan if he hears he is there and the Pakistan govt is "unable or unwilling" to get him.

It was discussed. McCain also said he knows how to get him, but it wouldn't be prudent to reveal his strategy or something to that effect.

I have to laugh at this. If ANYONE, ANYWHERE, especially a US Senator, has a plan that willl help capture Bin laden, it is his responsibility to give that information to the government.
I'm sure he means more generally in a military strategy or something..more political stuff...BUT sometimes when he says it, he makes it sound like he has the exact coordinates and we'll get Bin Laden on January 21, 2009 if he's elected.

I know, it was a funny statement. He actually used it to scold Obama for foolishly sharing his strategy (though I thought Obama's plan was very general). It does sound as if he knows exactly what spider hole he's hiding in, and he's climbing down there to get him next January.
Wonder if Bin Laden will release his eh "endorsement" video this election?

I was actually watching Bill Maher the other day and Christianne Amanpour was on the panel and she mentioned that the latest "chatter" is that he's not in a cave anywhere.....he's sitting pretty in some villa in Pakistan.

Right. He's been putting it off until he's President. And if he doesn't get the presidency, I guess he's going to keep that little secret to himself & forgo the $27 million dollar reward until he's in office?
