Bush slashes budget by 90%!
New findings released Saturday by the 9/11 commission:
Al Qaeda's annual budget appears to have shrunk from about $30 million a year before the Sept. 11 attacks to as little as a few million dollars per year now, the commission reported....

The organization no longer pays out an estimated $10 million to $20 million a year to support the Taliban, or millions more running terrorist training camps and providing funds to affiliated organizations.
Read the whole thing. This is great news! Al Qaeda can no longer afford to train terrorists or fund affiliated organizations.

But the spin of the article is telling. When it's good news, George Bush isn't even mentioned and b) the overall tone of the article is that we're not doing well enough! Hilarious!
