They caught the #2 Al Qaeda guy!!!
And Emanuel Goldstein, er uh, Osama Bin Laden remains free to act as America's boogeyman.

How many #2 guys have they captured so far?
I'd like to do a Google search to find out, but "#2 Al Qaeda" doesn't do much.

List all the #2 Al Qaeda people who have been captured in this thread.

23. Actually, they've upped it from No. 3
All the guys in the past have been the THIRD top Al-Qaeda guy.

Now, with all the heat this administration is taken with Katrina, Rita and gas prices, I'm thinking they've decided to start calling everyone they capture the No. TWO guy.

8. Unless it's Ayman Al Zawahiri, then they haven't caught the #2
Al Qaeda anything.
Guess this is the first in a series of '#2' guys we'll be catching while the poll numbers for the blivet continue to tank.

9. Zarqawi is dead...long live Zarqawi! - On one thread I read that
this newest conquest is Zarqawi's #2 man -- and I thought the Z Man was the #3 Al Qaeda guy, himself.

*whew* Politics is SO confusing -- it's like New Math. :shrug:

11. That must be #2 to the 9th power.
Because by my count, we have caught the #2 guy in Al Qaeda 512 times now.

12. Must be like on Star Trek...
You know... the extra crew member that beamed down with Kirk, Spock, etc... every week. He would invarably walk behind a rock... a flash of light... a scream... Kirk runs around the corner to find a pile of ashes.

Well at least we must be hampering their ability to promote from within... Number 2? Ummm, no thank you sir.

19. And we thought it was just our imagination!
Edited on Tue Sep-27-05 11:10 PM by Generic Other
Makes me wonder who that really skinny tall guy with the head covering was who I saw sneak out of Tora Bora way back when on CNN (I have always suspected he was Osama)...at the time everyone said he was the #2 guy and our forces let him go. And then they caught some short fat guy and said he was #2. So is the current #2, the guy with the big scar on his forehead?

Even people who don't pay attention ought to do a double take once in a while.

24. Postscript: Nevermind...nothing to see here...
The 'Second' Man - Azzam may not have been Zarqawi’s top deputy after all.

28. if i played poker with this Bushco deck, i'd be shot for cheating.
every other person would be sporting a 5 of a kind. every other card would be a jack or ten.

what a joke. :eyes:
