If al-Zaqarwi is caught, will it boost Bush's approval rating?

they'll likely time it just like they timed the security levels. if you don't believe me then watch what happens in November!

The reason somebody like Osama Bin Laden hasn't been caught is because he has plenty of supporters and followers in the Mid-East is because they think he is terrific along with their fanatical cause. It has nothing to do with being liberal or conservative.

Highly unlikely.  Many moderate Republicans feel that could end up being a political liability after the election controversy and her links to GWB.  Notice how many Republicans have been starting to distance themselves from the president?  This is in preparation for the upcoming election cycle.  They may support many of Bush's policies (or not), but they can not risk being too closely linked with an office with such low approval ratings.  \n\nHarris' name is so linked with Bush's at this point, however, that she cannot really gain any distance, making her an easy target.\n\nHope this helps!

If people would leave Bush alone he would get Osama.

I think it is more a case of people are afraid of him than loyal, though he probably has a cadre of loyal bodyguards too.  Iraq is roughly the size of California and a mix of deserts and mountains with some fairly sizeable cities, it is probably difficult to keep track of a small group of foreigners who frequently move around.  In addition to fear Zarqawi has cash to spread around which probably helps keep him hidden as well.  If he were caught I don't think he should be executed right away, he probably is a veritable gold mine of intelligence if he can be made to give up the info.

It was best for Al Qieda to have president Bush to get re-elected. They are getting all the publicity. They don't even have to attack U.S. now, President is helping them big time. If preseident is destroying this country at LOW expense of their man than There is no need to get rid of him.

Which George Bush are you referring to? It would be definitely if his Dad had removed Saddam in 1991. It would be if Clinton had taken out Bin Laden when he had the chance. As it is we wasted about 10 years letting terrorists and their supporters think they could long as the country they were living in didn't invade someone else they would have a place of support.\n\nIraq isn't Polaroid you don't make a change that drastic and get results in 60 seconds. Who do you think would be better causing trouble, Saddam or Zarqawi? \n\nLife in Iraq will be better. It should be better now-- but you have idiots over there making loud noises and killing people and I'm not talking about US troops. Why are the terrorists causing so much chaos? Because if they don't they have no power and lose all influence. It's not their religion, they aren't religious.

Maybe, but not really because he is a muslim, but because he is a liberal.  And he's not just a liberal, hes a LIBERAL, big time.  I've researched him.  He's very leftists, so I do think he'll try to appease the islamic countries, and if he must use his religion to gain those means, I don't see that stopping him.  However, he's just one Representative.  In most likelyhood he wont affect foreign affairs whatsoever, and instead just get alot of pork (no pun intended, I swear) for his district like every other Representative tries to do

Bush was using scare tactics to grab votes. Karl rove admitted that scaring Americans into a panic would win votes and justify the war in Iraq.\n  I have often wondered why Bush doesn't mention osama bin laden anymore. Here is the real terrorist who was responsible for the biggest terrorist attack in U.S history. There is evidence that the bin laden family have connections to the Bush family. They have extensive business relations for years.\n  Maybe he doesn't mention bin laden because he has no interest in capturing him. If by capturing bin laden could bring millions to Bush and Halliburton than you could bet the farm we would have him by now.\n  Could this be the reason why were in Iraq, to draw attention away from bin laden? Bush said in a speech back in late 2002 "I don't think about bin laden, I don't care were he's at,he's not a big deal to me".\n  This is how crazy Bush is. His idea is "osama bin laden attacked us, so lets go after Saddam". It's like if your neighbor beats up your wife so you go after your pastor.\n  The truth is this, Bush and Cheney can make alot more money invading Iraq and grabbing the oil (see Halliburton) and giving out a lucrative fire fighting contract to a firm once run by Cheney than by capturing Osama. \nBut in fairness to Bush, he has to keep shedding innocent blood or he violates his deal with the devil.\nIf anyone wants to see some real good stuff go to infowars.com or prisonplanet.com

If the media would reveal the positives of his presidency without dwelling 90% of the time on the negative, he would be highly rated. Unemployment is low, the economy is good, no terrorist attacks since 9-11. The ignorant of course don't know this as it is never reported.

5%, Bush Jr., in a poll I just took from people I met on a bus stop. However, in a poll in a VFW rally I hear he got 99% approval. \n\nLesson: If you do not specify the source, the rating is meaningless.

i wonder what will happen to. I PRAY TO GOD he either gets death or life. this will he a very important test for the iraqi government. if they screw up, then people will be more angry at bush. If they do it right, it will show improvements in Iraq. So pretty much: he will prolly get death or life. I'd rather see him get life. so he would suffer in an american jail, if he is killed, he'd be seen as a  martyr and stir up more war.

I wouldn't doubt that his approval rating would go up? Maybe the damn liberals are finally happy... which is quite rare! Or maybe they are finally realizing that they are wrong and that Bush is really doing a great job as the President of the U.S....

Also if we caught him, the "great demon" behind our "war on terror" would no longer be a threat...people might relax and start taking a look at what the administration is really up to.

There is no doubt that much more happen that day, which government is not telling us. If we recall that it was the time when the polls for president Bush were going down. But right after the attack the rating went up! so something did happen. Now the file is closed we will never get the true answer. Anybody who will raise the question will be labeled terrorist and unpatriotic.

Bush's popularity has dropped dramatically since his proposal to Iraq invasion. But still there are advocates behind him supporting his action and administration. Remember he got his second term of presidency voted by us. Good chances are this is his last term in the white house. Bush dynasty is going to be over soon.
