Cronkite doesn't put Rove above
OBL Tape airing.

KING: OK, Walter. What do you make of this?

CRONKITE: Well, I make it out to be initially the reaction that it's a threat to us, that unless we make peace with him, in a sense, we can expect further attacks. He did not say that precisely, but it sounds like that when he says...

KING: The warning.

CRONKITE: What we just heard. So now the question is basically right now, how will this affect the election? And I have a feeling that it could tilt the election a bit. In fact, I'm a little inclined to think that Karl Rove, the political manager at the White House, who is a very clever man, he probably set up bin Laden to this thing. The advantage to the Republican side is to get rid of, as a principal subject of the campaigns right now, get rid of the whole problem of the al Qaqaa explosive dump. Right now, that, the last couple of days, has, I think, upset the Republican campaign.

I think OSL is dead and we are hearing seance sounds ala ouija board manipulator Rove.

6. This is out of Rove's hands
Bin Laden rearing his ugly head now is simply the result of the bad karma Rove and Bush have accumulated since this wretched charade began. It just further drives the point home to the electorate that these bastards are incompetent and incapable of getting the job done right.

2. You are right this is not Rove's doing
but that said, last night after watching F 911 for the third time, I see a scneario wehre very high level coordination between the bush clan and the Bin Ladin clan for this... and yuo know waht IMPOSSIBLE to prove.

3. The creepiest thing of all about OBL's
Edited on Sun Oct-31-04 01:17 AM by Lancer
message is that it is obvious he has seen Fahrenheit 911. At least, that what's his references to the PLOT of The Pet Goat tell me.

:shudder:

Probably shacked up at the Ritz Carlton in Naples, Florida.

7. I don't recall any mention of the "plot" of The Pet Goat in F911...
just a passing reference to the story. :shrug:

12. Someone in OBL's camp can read and does read....
unlike our current administration.
They probably read it just to see what he was thinking at the time of the attack.... other than the "breathe.... blink" thing that * usually has going on.

10. Common Knowledge
The footage of Bush vs The Pet Goat has been around for years. It wasn't a Fahrenheit 9/11 exclusive. I would expect any researcher on the subject to be aware of it and I'm guessing that OBL has taken a very close interest in how the US Government reacted on that day.

Of course, he may well have seen the Farenheit 9/11, but I wouldn't have said it was "obvious".

4. add in bush the first
with his dealings with the Saudi family-shit bin`s dad and bush are friends- but the Lebanon war really hit me-whack! i forgot about that war..his statement was very clear and precise, he names the players and what they did...doesn`t really matter if he is alive or dead because his version of what went on for the last 24 years is out and no one can put it back...the whitehouse knows he is telling the truth they would like it to just go away.....

9. They are spinning the crap out of all the news as it emerges, but
I doubt that Karl Rove is controlling Bin Laden.

11. it is certainly within
the realm of possiblity.
the repukes engineered the theft of the election in 00 -- so this is doable.
with this much money, power, and greed in play we should all keep an open mind to the possibility that a player like rove will continue to go to the wall to stay in power.
