You've hit on the crux of the matter. Odds are Bin Laden's already dead, but Dubya's gone and gotten himself into a war he can't win. The nature of terrorism is guerilla and international, you simply can't stop terrorists by brute force. Furhter, declaring war and sending out troops is only likely to call more unwanted attention to the US and cause more terrorism anyway. The whole thing is ludicrous and more than a little untenable.

EDIT - Since this is paranoia I'll point out that above I'm assuming Dubya's goal is to stop terrorism, which may well be the smoke screen for something else entirelty.
