Yep, we've got 'em right where we want 'em.

Anyone surprised?

President Bush’s top counterterrorism advisers acknowledged Tuesday that the strategy for fighting Osama bin Laden’s leadership of Al Qaeda in Pakistan had failed, as the White House released a grim new intelligence assessment that has forced the administration to consider more aggressive measures inside Pakistan.

The intelligence report, the most formal assessment since the Sept. 11 attacks about the terrorist threat facing the United States, concludes that the United States is losing ground on a number of fronts in the fight against Al Qaeda, and describes the terrorist organization as having significantly strengthened over the past two years.

Oh yeah -- Putz will be.

And remember, when the Pakistan story came out last year, the vigilant terror-warrior Putz mouthed the Bush administration's talking points.
