If Karl Rove promised a surprise, and OBL popped up |
|
just when W was sinking again? doesn't this look suspicious to anyone?
Every time they are falling apart, Bush and Osama activate their wonder twin powers.

3. This is exactly what I thought |
|
at first. But then, what good does it do for Team W if OBL shows up? Unless he shows up dead, then Bush & Co might gain some ground.

He said "Yeah, I did 911, just because you did the same thing to us"
He has turned the whole "War on Terror" into a "Maaa - he hit me first" kind of irrelevance.

8. He also changed the topic - which W needed more than air to breathe |

4. It sort of depends on where and how he pops up! |
|
If he pops up in Pakistani handcuffs and is handed over to the US, that's one thing.
If he pops up tanned and healthy in a video threatening us, that's another thing entirely, I think.
I don't think the context of this appearance is helpful to Bush. He certainly didn't have a very powerful response planned for it. His statement about the tape was kind of tepid, if this was all Rove's doing.
Now the after-the-fact SPIN is definitely Rove's doing. They don't ACT as much as they REACT.

9. And he is furnishing his cave! |
|
Lectern, wall hangings, pressed white gown and frock. UBL looks quite comfortable. Yes, I am definitely going to vote for the chimp. The chimp will fix this.

Something is up. But, I am the suspicious type anyway. If shrub brings in Osama tommorrow or sunday, we may have a problem.

10. "This is Bin Laden, look at his head noddin" |
|
Hate to keep mentioning Mosh, but this tape today reminds me of the scene in the video where the Bin-Ladin-talking photo falls away and there's Rumsfeld and Cheney backstage yucking and slinking away.

11. This was produced to stop the rise of 9/11 scepticism |
|
Scepticism about the official propaganda version of 9/11 is rising steadily, and most especially in some key swing states like Colorado.
There very well may enough Libertarian-end repugs in some Western states to swing the election away from Bush. And the 9/11 scepticism of the youngest voters all over is rising quickly, and Eminem/GNN video hit Mosh is just one symptom of that. It was crucial for Bush to re-affirm the official 9/11 myth and remind young voters that Kerry has not challenged it.
THATS WHY THIS PROPAGANDA EVENT HAPPENED.
