"We took the people out who could have caught them," he said. "But even if we get bin Laden or Zawahiri now, it is two years too late. Al Qaeda is a very different organization now. It has had time to adapt. The administration should have finished this job."

This is from Flynt Leverett, a former CIA analyst and Middle East specialist who left Bush's National Security Council staff a year ago.

You're fucking kidding me.
