NO! NO! NO!... GOP instantly using Bin Laden tape to finish Kerry

[DougieZero]

They are going for it.... A Dole guy just said Bin Laden endorsed Kerry... They are going to hit this hard the last few days... What can we do?!?!?

[Zynx]

1. Bin Laden is trying to make it look like he likes Kerry in order to get

Bush in again.

[Nederland]

49. Exactly

Bush is the best thing that ever happened for OBL. He wants him to win...badly.

[swag]

2. Quit pissin' in your pants.

[Gyre]

62. I second that motion.

Gyre

[Cocoa]

3. what's a Dole guy?

[DougieZero]

10. Fmr. Dole strategist nt/

[aden_nak]

38. Pineapple salesman.

[d_b]

53. Banana Republican?

[Maple]

4. LOL its good for Kerry

Bush went after Saddam...bin Laden is still doing videos!

So...America needs a fresh start.

[HereSince1628]

5. Why even repeat that? Let it die under its own stupidity

[shawmut]

6. WTF?

:wtf:

[Democat]

7. We could start by banning all of the trolls from DU!

Not that my comment is related to this thread at all. :)

[TexasSissy]

30. Of course not! I knew that it wasn't!

;-)

[Stephanie]

46. That O/T suggestion should be heeded, IMO

Though it has nothing to do with this thread.

[July]

8. Timing stinks to high heaven.

Hope Kerry hits back hard.

[ProfessorPlum]

9. Laugh at them

Laugh at those evil Mofos just like Kirk and the Klingons laughed at those pulsing balls of light until they left the Enterprise.

It is, after all, Halloween. They just have another spooky guy dressed up for the part.

After all, doesn't this mean OBL was not captured "dead or alive", captain cowboy?

[Mad_Dem_X]

28. OBL is evidence of *'s failure

Kerry just needs to point this out - the man who murdered 3,000 Americans is still on the loose!

[rkc3]

42. Yes, yes. yes, yes - bush took his eyes off the target.

Kerry is a jackass if he doesn't point that out.

[mzmolly]

11. Simple .. If BinLaden endorsed Kerry / rolling of eyes, then it's because

he supports Bush. He's no idiot. He obviously want's George Bush in office. :hi:

[FrankenforMN]

18. Americans are not smart enough to realize this

They will see this as a call to rally behind Bush.

[FrankenforMN]

12. We can bend over

and take it up the ass from the media like we always do, or we can go vote.

[rot0r_head]

13. I saw it and I still can't believe they said it

If it's bad for Bush, WE NEED TO MAKE IT BAD FOR KERRY!!! That's how the Fox runs.

[Pig_Latin_Lover]

14. Bin Laden shouldn't be alive to endorse Kerry

The bottom line is that Bush has failed and took his eye off the ball.

[SammyWinstonJack]

37. Exactly!

The chimp is the one who said OBL wasn't a concern of his and that he didn't spend much time thinking of OBL and now OBL is making videos? Sounds bad for the chimp. I don't think people are totally stupid on these.

[Mad_Dem_X]

45. EXACTLY! He's still alive because of *'s incompetence!

[HysteryDiagnosis]

15. Nuthin.... shrub is going down in flames.... landslide. Nothing and I

mean nothing these creeps have pulled has shaken the numbers to any great degree... this is a done deal.. people have made up their minds.. and many of them made them up during the three debates. No amount of propaganda is going to erase the memories of "the free world's leader" making faces, grimmacing, and looking for words where there weren't any. Fear not... this clown is outa there.

[Nederland]

57. True

Nothing they have done so far have shaken the numbers--but this is unlike anything they have done so far. This is huge and it will run all weekend long. How it plays out is anyones guess, but it WILL affect the polls. This isn't some explosives/faked memo/Halliburton bullshit story. This is a tape by the guy that killed 3000+ Americans. It WILL have an effect on the election.

[fugop]

16. Mock them mercilessly

Ridicule anyone who says such a thing. People have already become jaded about the terror alerts. Remember how they finally started backfiring? This is too late. The people stupid enough to buy the "Bin Laden loves John Kerry" crap are already for Bush.

[Javaman]

17. freep alert

[patrice]

19. Bin Laden "favors" Kerry in order to get Bush in again.

Make a sign. Go to a busy street corner.

God! The very idea of involving a foreigner in our electoral process. This IS Treason!

[AuntPatsy]

20. This won't change anyone's mind at this point no matter how

much the morons heading the gop attempt to spin it in thier candidates favor, it's all whitewash at this point, too close to the election and anyone with an ounce of intelligence will wonder out loud just why this guy, obl, is even being able to talk on this video instead of being six feet under which is what the talking head of this administration promised the first few months after 9/11

[Media_Lies_Daily]

21. Ooooh, yeah...if I were Kerry I would be very nervous about this....

...NOT.

Nice try...move along please.

[Xipe Totec]

22. Link? Source? Reference?

Or are you hearing disembodied voices? :wtf:

[AIJ Alom]

23. What do we do ??? We play Bush saying I'm not that concerned about him !!!

[montana500]

24. Dougie dont be such a pansy

Anyone can see this is an edorsement of Bush.

[d_b]

Cnn has a far better analysis and translator

Bin Laden is saying that the security of the USA isnt in Bush or Kerry's hands, it's in "your" (our) hands. Basically, keep your government in check and we won't come to kill you.

Hardly a winner for Bush.

But hey, who the hell even knows the validity of this whole thing.

[CrispyQ]

25. Anyone who lets a terrorist influence their vote is not a patriot.

Real patriots don't let anyone, I mean ANYONE, influence who WE think is the better leader for our country.

Bushco are frickin' cryin' lyin' cowards. They smell of burnt toast & are desperate. OBL shouldn't even be alive to make a fucking tape. I hate these assholes.

You can't spell coward without a W.

[knowbody0]

26. fear not

obl referenced our leader reading goat stories as 50,000 people were under attack. we must get true translation. do not listen to cnn fox

[Pig_Latin_Lover]

27. Bin Laden shouldn't be alive to endorse Kerry

The bottom line is that Bush has failed and took his eye off the ball.

[killbotfactory]

29. What shitheels...

Bush isn't concerned about him, why should we be?

[LiberteToujours]

31. Why would Bin Laden actually tell us what he wants?

Bin Laden wanting Kerry means he's trying to manipulate us into thinking he wants him so we should vote Bush which is who he really wants. Or maybe he knows we'll figure that out so he really wants Kerry so he says Kerry thinking we'll think he really wants Bush and then we'll vote Kerry. Or maybe he really wants Bush because he really wants Kerry but ...

The fact is, we don't know who he wants and frankly he probably cares much more about creating election chaos than who actually wins the election. THAT is his purpose here and by trying to spin this against Bush or Bush trying to spin it against us we're playing right into his hands once again. The media should not be playing this tape.

[dave123williams]

32. We can point out that this terrorist mutherfucker is free, thanks to *.

[NightOwwl]

33. Hello?

How about reminding everyone that he's still on the loose after almost 4 years.

[MallRat]

34. WE HAVE TO SHAME THEM IF THEY'RE GOING TO DO THIS.

And it needs to come from Kerry, too. If GOP surrogates are going to call this an endorsement for Kerry, he needs to unleash holy hell on the Republicans.

At long last, have ANY OF YOU MOTHERFUCKING REPUBLICANS no decency?

Shame on ALL OF YOU. SHAME. SHAME. YOU DEFILE OUR NATION, YOU DESTROY OUR COUNTRY.

FUCK YOU.

Well, I'd probably choose different words if I were Kerry, but you get the idea.

-MR

[Robbie67]

35. What can we do? Sit back and watch them self-destruct.

I've never seen any group of people more desperate than I've seen Republicans in the last couple of weeks.

[Avalux]

36. A bit hysterical, aren't you DougieZero?

BYE!

[Oreo]

39. I wasn't too far off!

Kerry needs to hammer...

OBL is still alive... he should be dead and will be when I'm president.

He needs to do it quick b/c I fear Monday or Tuesday, we may have something bad happen. I'm a conspiracy theorist at heart but it wouldn't hurt to think the worst and hammer while there's still time.

OBL is still alive... he shouldn't be.
If something happens... and JK has hammered it enough that Bush should have put all forces on OBL... as terrible as any attack would be... it may work to oust Bush.

Not feeling too good right now

[Lunging Leftwards]

40. You think people will fall for it this close to the election?

:-(

[xrepub]

41. Nothing

OBL said that bush can't protect us. Why is that damaging to Kerry?

[DougieZero]

47. You know how the Bushies work

Listen... I don't have time to do the usual "I'm not a troll" pleas... People who are hardcore political junkies know how the Bushies are going to spin this.

[LowerManhattanite]

52. "Listen... I don't have time to do the usual "I'm not a troll" please... "

You say that as if you hear it a lot. Funny. :)

[DougieZero]

56. lol...

It's a passionate board...

[Cats Against Frist]

43. WTF? OH THE HUMANITY!! WHAT ARE WE GOING TO DO????

:wtf:

[Downtown Hound]

44. Calm down Dougie

This is not going to hit hard. Please, they have been saying for months that Bin Laden endorsed Kerry. This isn't going to do a damn thing.

[snowbear]

48. Dougie...

Geez Louise, settle down! This tape is a NIGHTMARE for Bush. Far too many people assumed that he was dead.

That, and OBL specificallys says "it doesn't matter which one wins; Bush or Kerry"

Had he said it differently, we would have had something to be concerned with.

This completes the hattrick of bad news for Bush for the past week!

[Village Idiot]

50. RELAX, for one thing.

If UBL is still around, it is the kiss of death for Shrub. This tape shows * to be the ineffectual moron loser we all know him to be.

All Kerry has to do to counter-spin this is to say that if he had been Commander in Chief, UBL would be dead - not creating videos and spreading terror.


GO KERRY, GO!!!

[Generator]

51. Why the FUCK is Osama Bin Laden still alive on October 29,2004?

George W. Bush's failure. Case closed.

[chiburb]

54. YES! YES! YES!... Dougie instantly using Bil Laden tape to finish

His work here...

Thanks for the post!

[MrMonk]

55. The Dole guy understands Arabic?

How would he know what bin Laden was saying?

[requiem99]

58. The wording proves Freepdom: "finish" kerry? Kerry has never been NEAR fin

ished. OH THE HUMANITY!

[AntiCoup2K4]

74. Freepdom? Why, what are you suggesting about Doug?

Where the Hell is "Upland" anyway?

Oops, did I say that out loud? :dunce:

[sendero]

59. You really...

.... cannot be serious. Get a grip.

[DougieZero]

60. Mock Me

but the top headline on sludge is already:

<b>"Osama bin Laden, in Al-Jazeera broadcast, campaigns against Bush..."</b>

Everyone is laughing at me, but dosen't anyone get it?... This is going to get bottom of the barrel in the last few days.

[sendero]

61. I get it all right....

... this bullshit is nothing, and you are going to have little success convincing anyone here it is.

Bush* has had 3 years to rid the world of Osama Been Forgotten, and the American people dont' really give a shit what he thinks anyway.

The stupid Repugs have been spinning so wildly the last 3 weeks nobody gives a rats ass what they are saying anyway.

So, if you are truly a Dem and worried, chill out. If you are a paid disruptor STFU.

[DougieZero]

67. I'm a former Dean guy

Listen... I have been passionate about this election for the last few years. My hard work with Dean went down the drain with the "Scream" in the last moment... I lost my voice screaming at my TV 20 minutes ago when Neil Cavuto had a big smirk on his face when a fmr. Dole guy said "...looks like he is endorsing Kerry"... It's so unfair and cheap, but I don't have much faith in the average American voter.

[sendero]

71. I was a Dean guy too..

.... but it wasn't just the scream that did Dean in, it is much more complicated than that.

In any event, this will be the usual he-said/she-said on TV for a couple days but seriously, you cannot compare this to Dean.

I know Americans are often ignorant but they are not as stupid as some seem to think. They can hear OBL's words and make up their own mind what it means, if anything.

If current translations are even close, this tape should worry George Bush more than it worries Kerry.

[A-Schwarzenegger]

77. Paid? They get PAID?

Can't be much.

[Trajan]

65. Honestly ....

Do you put ANY stock in Drudge's Crapola ? ...

WHO THE FUCK is Drudge ? ...

HE is a no one: he is a cheerleader for a narrow minded team ....

ONLY the players of THAT team listen to him .... Mild natured folk couldnt give a FUCK wtf he says ...

You act as if he means something ... you prop him up ...

He aint shit ... and neither is what he says ...

[sundog]

63. You should get your post count up before...

posting crap to disturb us... at least be subtle about it... you'll earn more points for your stealth skills...

You guys are losing the election, get over it.

[The Magistrate]

64. Steady On, Mr. Zero

All this does is re-emphasize the failures of the criminals of the '00 Coup in prosecuting the war against the Islamic fundamentalist radicals who atacked our country. It gives new edge and further sustains the line that the criminals missed a golden opportunity to catch this wretch by "outsourcing" the job at Tora Bora, and to the colossal distraction from this vital effort the invasion of Iraq reoresents. It drives home to the people that for all the bluster of the Andover cheerleader, all his "Dead or alive" and "We'll smoke 'em out" and his "You can run but you can't hide" posturings, the fact is that Bin Ladin has indeed evaded the might of the United States, as this has been directed by this criminally incompetent administration, and is still in operation and doing quite well for himself. It is an excellent and sovereign reminder of the failures of this administration in what most people consider a vital matter, and gives the lie entirely to the Andover cheerleader's pretense that he is up to the job of protecting the nation. For that, better to turn to someone who has actually closed with an armed enemy, and shot him dead....

"If you repeat a lie often enough, you are a Republican."

"LET'S GO GET THOSE BUSH BASTARDS!"

[Trajan]

68. Hello Sir ...

Nice to see you around, O Mighty Magistrate ...

I hope all is well with You ...

LET'S GO GET THOSE BUSH BASTARDS ! ...

Indeed .....

[archineas]

66. it's bad news for bush

it can't be anything but.

pure creepublicans will try to spin anything in their favor..."oh look, the sky is grey, it must be the fault of the democrats"

yeesh...

[A-Schwarzenegger]

69. Falafels Really Express Everything Perfectly Except Reality.

[AusTexDem]

70. the CNN translator said...

OBL says on the tape that it does not matter who is elected president * or kerry.
That doesn't sound like an endorsement of kerry to me.

[LiberalEconomist]

72. Ok, now take a deep breath

clean ass and change underwear. Seesh. This is all bullshit.

[Warren DeMontague]

73. We're "Not That Concerned About Him"... Roll the tape!

http://democrats.org/exaggeration/index.html

[SuburbanGA]

75. I agree with you

I hope that those of us who dissent sometimes are not called freepers. I loathe repiblicans but by being fearful of the repricussions of the tapes, I am fearful that the american electorate's IQ is not equipped to see how this proves W is not the STRONG leader he claims to be. Instead they will wet their panties and get behind Bushie

[troubleinwinter]

76. "What can we dooo???!?!"
