Share, please

By J. Kingston Pierce

My only additional comment, relative to tonight's debate: John McCain told viewers (not for the first time) that "I'll get Osama bin Laden, my friends. I'll get him. I know how to do it!" If that's true, then why in the hell doesn't he tell somebody how to do it now? Somebody such as George W. Bush or Robert Gates, who can act to capture or kill the elusive bin Laden. Why is McCain withholding his knowledge? Doesn't he care about actually getting bin Laden? Or is this simply another hollow promise, like Richard Nixon's reassurance to voters in 1968 that he had a secret plan to end the war in Vietnam?
