OBL definitely got what he wanted today

[thefloyd]

Blue states Vs Redstates(Bin Laden Mentions attack in Heart of the Land), "Traitors" vs "Patriots", Right vs Left, Warmongers vs Doves. Just look at OBL's latest speech and a person could postulate the RNC and DNC worked together. Jesus.

1. OBL is playing us. Grrrrrrrrrrr.

[thefloyd]

2. Damn straight.

very sad

[henslee]

3. Grrrrr.

[unblock]

5. the banana republicans are playing us.

"obl is playing us" kinda implies that we all have the same agenda.

the fact of the matter is, obl's agenda and the shrubbies' agenda line up quite a bit.

[thefloyd]

7. I think he/she meant the United States

I am not sure though

[henslee]

11. Yeah, OBL/BFEE playing us. Its all one big mind fck. And they

just need one "Oswald/Shoebomber" type to pull an attack stateside to scare the shit out of all of us and distract us from THE OTHER HAND... i.e. all the scandals, etc.

[unblock]

12. i'm not convinced that obl and bfee are in cahoots

it's just that their agendas align to keep the "terra" thing going.

obl releases tapes to keep the terror thing going from his side, because it benefits him without regard to the shrubbies.
bfee then takes the tapes and runs with them to keep the terror thing going from their side, because it benefits them without regard to obl.

there's no need to actually conspire if your interests are aligned.

[henslee]

13. Oh, me neither. Inadverdent, convenient accomplices is more like it.

But bottom line -- the net result is such that for all pract. purposes, whether they are offcially or unofficially alligned, makes no diff.

9. CIA is "playing us" Osama is just a conduit.

The Bin Ladens are highly respected members of the Bush oil mafia.

The only question in my mind is does Osama pick up his CIA checks in person? Or does he just use direct deposit.

4. Anyone else get what he (they) wanted?

Anyone else benefit (or at leas try to) from this?

[thefloyd]

6. Since I lean left

I would say Conservatives. What group of people were you thinking about?

[underpants]

8. THAT group of people

It's pro wrestling thats all this is. No resolution. Everyone stays popular with their side.

[lectrobyte]

10. Are you sure it's OBL? It seemed to get a lot of bad news for

Repubs off the front page, and Gee Dub can now go around and mutter "terra terra nine eleven" without seeming like such a tool...
