Apparently, the OBL tape was edited by Al Jazerra (Bush threats deleted)
He apparently threatened 15 people on the tape (Bush and cabinet members).

That's what I'm reading on the political blogs today.

MORE TALES OF THE TAPE
Stories circulated today that the new OBL video was much less bipartisan than at first believed, and that unedited versions of the tape included threats against the Bush family and several Cabinet members. This morning Al Jazeera posted what it claimed was a complete transcript of the video which apart from looking too short to be 18 minutes also had nothing that was not already aired. One interesting side note -- the text of the translation was based on the subtitles in the original video. The transcript does not include the final few sentences in which bin Laden mentions John Kerry. Nor does bin Laden anywhere mention Iraq. He does apparently say that this is the fourth year of the war, but everything else he says deals with the causes of the conflict. Is this a new tape or not?

8. most of the stuff they post is crap
but they do get exclusives some times.

most notbaly, reliable exit poll info during the primaries and probably on tuesday.

just because it's right-wing doesn't mean you should automatically dismiss it, know your enemy...
