binLaden cites HALLIBURTON, video tape was scrubbed for US consumption

[Bluebear]

Why was the following scrubbed from the aired tape on Friday. Mr. Bush? Mr. Cheney??


===

(excerpt from bin Laden video) It is true that this shows that al-Qaida has gained, but on the other hand, it shows that the Bush administration has also gained, something of which anyone who looks at the size of the contracts acquired by the shady Bush administration-linked mega-corporations, like Haliburtonand its kind, will be convinced. And it all shows that the real loser is...you.

3. It pisses me off beyond belief that out lap dog press

is such a total whore for this corrupt administration. Goddamnit, I want to hear what that madman has to say and I don't need it sanitized.

4. That's what I felt.

Many are saying "well bin Lden is a mandman." I agree, a murderous madman. That's why Democrats wanted him held to account for 9/11. I don't need my President to determine what I can and can't decide for myself.
