Bad poll number for Bush? Here comes the remedy! OBL speaks
http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20060424/ap_on_re_mi_ea/bin_laden_tape

How fucking typical is this? I'm sure this was either held until the time was right, or they have OBL in the basement of the White house and they have him say shit into a microphone in order to try and boost Dim son's poll numbers!!!

2. Ummmm why does he care? He is not running for re-election.
bush is out soon, and most repugs probably are not banking on him for help.

If he cares about poll numbers, he is an idiot :) But then, either way he is an idiot!

10. War crimes don't have an expiration date.
Seriously, it's way past legacy and a desire to maintain their agenda on political principals. It's all about the systematic domestic and international crimes that they have carried out. They cannot allow the Democrats to take control of government...ever again.

3. Nah, it's a major embarrassment that OBL hasn't been caught
W's greed for Iraqi oil for his buds got in the way. He does have priorities.

5. If I didn't know better, I'd swear that OBL was on the Adm payroll.
A recording always turns up when Rove has bad poll numbers.

7. The alerts will be back between now and the election.
Remember -- they want to show lots of guns and badges, according to the new 5 point plan. It's worked for them before . . . .

We are so dumb.

9. But, but. I thought we we're fightin' there so we don't have to here??
And...and Cheney said we haven't had another attack because he's doing such a good job protecting us! Now we have to be afraid again?

This administration makes it so confusing! :crazy:

12. I don't think OBL helps Chimp anymore like he used to.
Edited on Mon Apr-24-06 09:24 AM by npincus
Now that Americans realize B*sh is INCOMPETENT and see Iraq as not-related to the "War on Terror" and a diversion from the real war in Afghanistan (recent polls support this), OBL's appearances are a reinforcement of B*sh's failure to capture him.

I really, really don't think OBL is helpful to B*sh anymore.

20. I thought OBL's appearance was to distract from Kerry kicking Smirk's ass
Too many fires for one Boogey Man to put out.
