But the reports aren't from the "noose tightening" administration. They're from various sources including President Musharaf who I'm sure is pretty eager to produce some results to keep the money bags flowing.

I'm inclined to believe they probably have someone of substantial importance. The real argument to be made is why it took so long, assuming it's true. Poor weather aside, it's likely that bin Laden and his gang have been in the same mountains for quite some time. I'm suspicious of why it took so long to get the green light to go get them.
