Let's ask the guy in charge...

"There are days when our fellow citizens do not hear news about the war on terror. There's never a day when I do not learn of another threat, or receive reports of operations in progress, or give an order in this global war against a scattered network of killers. The war goes on, and we are winning."

-- Bush State of the Union Jan 28 2003

or how about this:

Iraq is the site of "a continuing battle in the war on terror," President Bush said August 22, calling the confrontation there one "of the major battles of the first war of the 21st century."

-- Office of the Public Affairs in Islamabad home page on Aug 25, 2003

or how about this:

"As we gather tonight, hundreds of thousands of American servicemen and women are deployed across the world in the war on terror."

and

"And it is tempting to believe that the danger is behind us. That hope is understandable, comforting -- and false. The killing has continued in Bali, Jakarta, Casablanca, Riyadh, Mombasa, Jerusalem, Istanbul, and Baghdad. The terrorists continue to plot against America and the civilized world."

-- Bush State of the Union Jan 20 2004

Whether or not Osborn believes the war ended a year ago, I'm thinking the commander in chief is probably a better authority on such matters.
