I'm also pretty sure we had no clue where he was. If we did, then you are absolutely right that's where we should have gone first. But killing Osama is only a small percentage of the problem. Those guys are like roaches - they're everywhere and for every one you kill there's a thousand more hiding in the walls. I think our objective was to take out the taliban - not just get Osama. If that's our objective, then obviously we're failing miserably.
And I also agree for general purposes GWB should be making fries for a living.
