Setting the stage for a Monday night surprise
Don't think for ONE minute that the supposed "American Al Qaeda" tape that "appeared" a few days ago, followed by the Bin Laden tape days later, followed by the Ridge press conference one day later, followed by the FBI all points bulletin for the "American Al Qaeda" guy today -- are all just coincidence.

Don't ever think that.


The stage is being set folks... for something.

It's so blatant, that it's throwing everyone off.

Sunday night into Monday will be interesting. Watch carefully the coming 48 hours for any more signs of a finale.

And remember, there's no such thing as coincidence with this administration that will do EVERYTHING and ANYTHING to stay in power.

1. I don't think they'll have to do anything blatant
They own electronic voting........

They just have to keep it close.

2. I was just going to post my own thoughts about how we have to
get through Sunday....Football day, big TV viewership....you know the drill.
We know that Pakistan has been under pressure to produce terrorists...who's to say that they don't already have bin Laden and will spring him on schedule??? LIke you say, the final Rovian maneuver...

I am absolutely freaked by this.

3. Bet they'll "catch" the American al-Qaida guy
As for throwing everyone off, I'm sure the Kerry camp is ready.

5. Remember Rove saying that he still had a few surprises for Kerry?
It's exactly what we predicted weeks and months ago but you're right, it's so blatant it's incomprehensible.

8. no, i only know that
past actions speak for future ones.

i know karl rove will do ANYTHING to keep bush in power. (i just watched a documentary on him the other night, which only furthered my opinion about this)

i know that the past few days' events are far too coincidental to be just that.

and i know that, in their minds, terror and fear means VICTORY for bush.

those are all just KNOWNS.

it's just a matter of putting the pieces together, and seeing events for what they really are.

14. Honestly, Bush looked white all day Friday
Like he was scared shitless. The story could have gone real negative for him if not for FUCKING Dem strategists who can't keep their FUCKING mouths shut (yeah, you Tripi).

You may be right about the American Al Queda though.

25. What did Trippi do?
I know he was interviewed over and over. But what did he say to earn your response?

11. The only thing they have up their sleeve is to BLOCK Voting
You know this time there are going to be black voters turned away from the polls all over the Bible belt. They got away with it last time in Florida now they are going to pull that crap all over the southern bible belt

12. This whole string of events is VERY DISTURBING...
the timing STRONGLY suggests coordination, the Ridge thing, the OBL sighting, very, very disturbing.

13. you're right, it's the "coordination"
that's so striking.

sometimes i wonder who's REALLY "in charge" of this coordination.

15. Well, put 2 and 2 together for me, please.
Doesnt "blatant" mean, like, obvious, NOT subtle?
What's the "finale"?
Or do you want to leave it up to my imagination?

16. That's all they have left...
Pulling OBL out of a hat for all to see. Trotting him out Monday night would be something so outlandush and outragous it would defy reason, too. And W doesn't want a live OBL, he wants a dead one, so I would think he's been in deep freeze for a least a year, for just this time.

I just can't see it happening, though. I really hope I'm wrong.

19. They *DON'T* Have Osama
It would take a lot of people to get to him--either military or CIA--and i cannot imagine, under any circumstances, that the people who knew for a fact that Osama was dead could be so un-American as to keep their mouths shut until the last days of the campaign. Somebody's guilty conscience would have leaked out Osama's death or capture by now.

And, anyway, if it were true, the Bush Campaign would have used it right after the debates, at least, to win this thing.

17. Newsguy, Karl Rove Posing As An Arab Terrorist Was Farcical
Osama on tape IS BITING Bush in the ass.

Whatever they have... it will be laughable... and obvious.

I am so not worried.

20. OBL will be 'captured' on Monday, the speech was
an actor or OBL drugged up. Everything they have done since 9-11 has been staged: plastic turkey, carrier landing, standing on rubble speech, Jessica Lynch... The only real spontaneous thing bush has done was dropping Barney!

23. What if they captured one of Osama's wives?
Would that do any good for Bush? Anyway I think
it would be a pretty good and very interesting
surprise.

24. The funny thing is that the video
Edited on Sat Oct-30-04 09:03 PM by DoYouEverWonder
or the American al Qaeda guy and the OBL video were supposedly made by the same production companies. Funny OBL would be even using a production company to make a home video? However, the supposed experts claimed that they couldn't authenticate the 1st video, but they decided the OBL video was real before it was even released to the public.

I think there is so much crap flying around right now, neither side really knows which end is up.

26. Well, if some video company is videoing Osama
then this is what to do: Stake-out the video company. Duh.
How many people work there? How many trucks do they have?
Set up a stake-out and watch when anybody packs
up to go out to video. Follow truck wherever it goes,
especially if it goes to the mountains, Pakistan, Bora
Tora, caves, or China. Bingo. Duh.
