They Don't Care to Capture Bin Laden

Gen. Peter J. Schoomaker, Army Chief of Staff, on captruing Osama bin Laden:
"I don't know that it's all that important, frankly."
Dick Cheney downplaying the importance of capturing Osama bin Laden:
"He's not the only source of the problem, obviously. . . . If you killed him tomorrow, you'd still have a problem with al-Qaeda."
President Bush on how important he thinks capturing Osama bin Laden is:
"So I don't know where he is. You know, I just don't spend that much time on him. ... And, again, I don't know where he is. I -- I'll repeat what I said. I truly am not that concerned about him."
"Deep in my heart I know the man's on the run, if he's alive at all...I just don't spend much time on it, really, to be honest with you."
President Bush also shut down the CIA operation trying to capture Osama bin Laden. And let him escape in Tora Bora.
