Outsourcing Tora Bora
I was planning to sell anti-bush T-shirts with slogans on them. Alas, shipping costs proved prohibitive. So, I fired off one of the sayings I thought up to the Democrats on a whim. This is what I sent them: “It was a mistake to outsource the job of encircling Bin Laden at Tora Bora to the Northern Alliance. The world’s most powerful army would have done a better job.” Since then, the Democrats http://www.thepanamanews.com/pn/v_10/issue_18/community_01.html and Kerry http://slate.com/id/2107141/ have mentioned outsourcing Tora Bora a few times. I am not saying they got the idea from me. The idea is a simple one and I am sure more than a few people have had the same thought. However, I am tickled pink at the thought none the less. The phrase Kerry used on September 11 was this: “Instead of using U.S. forces to capture Osama bin Laden… the President outsourced the job to Afghan warlords, who let bin Laden slip away. That was the wrong choice.” http://www.johnkerry.com/pressroom/speeches/spc_2004_0924.html
