The War on Terror

Freddy the Great was sitting around this weekend with his folks talking about the Ken Burns documentary and all this Petraeus business and he got wondering how the war really is going and if there is anything he can do to hasten its end.

Then he reminded us of one of those inspirational speeches our president made a few years back, discussing the hunt for bin Laden, when we all had a clearer view of what this was all about. The part we all remembered best was when Bush said: "He's on the run. Listen, a while ago, I said to the American people, our objective is more than bin Laden. But one of the things for certain is, we're going to get him running and keep him running, and bring him to justice. And that's what's happening. He's on the run, if he's running at all. So we don't know whether he's in a cave with the door shut or a cave with the door open. We just don't know. There's all kinds of reports and all kinds of speculation."

Particularly moved by the idea of bin Laden running if running at all, our brave boy decided to do his part by investigating local caves. We'll let you know what turns up, and whether that cave door was open or shut after all. One thing we can promise: there are NO dogs in those caves. Not anymore.
