...Saddam Hussein was a very evil person, and I'm glad we forced him out of power. But shouldn't our focus be on the man who started it all? I can't figure out why we haven't captured Osama bin Laden. We've been so involved with getting Iraq back on track that bin Laden and al-Qaeda are getting ready to attack us again. So once more we're all on pins and needles, because we don't know when or where or how. Patricia Jones Reston...

I can't see any positive results that have come out of the Bush Administration since the fall of the Taliban. Results do matter, but the Republicans have failed to produce any good ones. DAVID...
...counterterrorism official. "He's a major player." The Pakistanis have placed a bounty of $341,000 on his head. But catching him won't be easy. The Pakistanis think he is operating out of the rugged country on the border of Afghanistan and Pakistan, the very region where Osama bin Laden is thought to be hiding and has proved so elusive...
