McClellan asked question on political implications of OBL tape

[WilliamPitt]

"No comment."

Per CNN at 5:30pm EST.

1. Hmmm...

Can't wait to hear Kerry.

[PDittie]

2. OBL slapped * with "My Pet Goat"

That is fucking priceless.

[BayStateBoy]

4. Yep, OBL says Bush read goat book while Americans were dying

Bush's failure to react as a President should gave the terrorists and OBL precious extra time to coordinate attacks.

He couldn't have said it more clearly and specifically.

[WI_DEM]

12. Not sure if that comment helps or not

It is one thing for an American to question Bush doing that but for the murderer himself to point it out--might backfire. But since OBL said neither Kerry nor Bush can save America, blah, blah, blah--it certainly is an endorsement for neither.

14. The Bush spokeswoman with Wolfie already said Michael Moore

was giving aid and comfort to the enemy. Of course Wolf had asked if she thought bin Ladin had seen Moore's movie.

3. Too bad Helen Thomas didn't ask

"What did he mean by MY PET GOAT? Was that some sort of encrypted message?

[BayStateBoy]

5. OBL was referring to Bush reading while Americans were dying

It was a condemnation of the Bush "leadership" and how Bush failed to react properly to protect Americans.

8. I know...but Republicans hate it when you say MY PET GOAT

[LostInAnomie]

7. LOL

That would have been great.

[LoZoccolo]

6. Gotta be responsive if you wanna fight terrorism.

Guess we know it's gonna be "The Pet Goat" all over again if the shit goes down. Next!

[Supersedeas]

9. "no comment".....how convenient--what a stand-up guy

[Borgnine]

10. This is going to go our way.

We just have to fight the spin. The wave of Freeper posts after the OBL video was aired showed what they'll be trying to do all weekend, but the momentum of this video is on our side. Bush failed to get the bastard. He didn't care about him. Now he runs around free, alive and well.

The video is the final explosive, watery defecation on top of the Bush campaign after a weeklong binge at Taco Bell.

[Richardo]

11. Very evocative prose there in that last sentence Borgnine...

I'm torn between laughter and vomiting... ;)

[vickie]

13. I certainly hope your're right.
