Couldn't the OBL Tape Really Help Us?
I don't hear him endorsing Bush or Kerry. He says our security is in neither of their hands.

He did say that they were allowed an extra 20 minutes to kill more Americans because the Bush felt it was more important to sit reading a story about a goat to children while 50,000 people were trapped in the towers.

In other words, OBL claims that if Bush had reacted properly and immediately many American lives could have been saved and that he was surprised at the extra time to kill that Bush gave them.

That is what I heard the translator say.

1. OBL just reminds us Bush cares more about oil than about getting him...
Bush is Osama Bin Laden's oil-slicked bitch.

4. Bush said "I am truly not that concerned about him." 6 months after 9/11
Now go share that with all the undecideds you know. Bush let Bin Laden get away and said he wasn't that concerned about him.

5. I want no help of any kind from OBL!
I think we should never see him as any kind of ally. We are Dems and we lost on 9/11 just as much as any repub. OBL is our enemy.

6. Agreed, I heard him say that, too. Floored me.
I also heard what seemed to be a "Leave us alone and we'll leave you alone" suggestion. It was unclear because the translator wasn't doing very well. Off-pace. Slow. It was very annoying and confusing. The Bush slams followed by the implicit Bush endorsement came through loud and clear, however!!

Absolutely A-mazing.

8. When you factor in
the fact that this story is getting the explosives, Halliburton, and Iraq casulaties off the air it's going to end up being a wash.

9. I;m afraid it will make people rally around Bush. Osma telling us what to
do will have the opposite effect that Osama expects. It makes me feel angry - but not enought to rally around Bush, but other people might feel that way.
