Nope, never had him in custody. Had tried several times, unsuccessfully, to get various countries to expell Bin Ladin to a country where he could stand trial. Tried to hit him with some cruise missles once, then could not get much support from a repub lead congress to go after him again. Old Newt was too busy trying to nail Clinton for lying about a bj all the while carrying on an affair of his own.

As far as letting terrorists go, Bush released 60 from Gitmo, several of whom have ended up back on the battlefield.
