11. Why can't we catch this guy?
he is on dialysis? Kind of hard to be dragging a dialysis machine through the mountains of Pakistan... With our capabilities and we can't find one giant Arab dressed all in white with a dialysis machine?

5. apparently, CNN agrees....
http://www.cnn.com/2006/US/01/19/binladen.tape/index.html

Purported bin Laden tape: 'It's only a question of time'

CNN could not immediately confirm that the voice in the poor-quality audiotape was that of bin Laden.

6. And The Interupt a boooosh "speech"
That's what set off my bullshit meter. It was a bullshit piece of tripe about asshat's least favorite topic...the economy. You could see he was killing time and voila..."Terror Alert".

Now pardon me while I stock up on duct tape and prepare for the airplanes to fly into our houses.

:crazy:

:rofl:

7. WE ARE NOT SAFER
despite the wiretaps
despite 'Homeland Security'
despite the torture flights
despite GITMO
despite the bloodbath in Iraq

WE ARE NOT SAFER NOW THAN WE WERE ON 9/10/01.

So whatcha got to say for yourselves, punkass George and evil Dick? :nuke:

16. They'll re-frame it, create their own reality, and say -
THIS is why you still need us. Never MIND that it's PAINfully obvious that the only person's security he cares about is of his staff and the ultra-rich. Everyone else can die in shockwaves.

Osama Bin Goldstien is going to be milked from now until 2008.

19. Classic! Guest on CNN says CNN is the mouthpiece, not Usama!
Edited on Thu Jan-19-06 11:18 AM by Atman
Did anyone catch that just now? The guest on with Daryn "Smells Like Rush" Kagan was responding to a question about Usama being a mouthpiece for Al Qeada. The guy said that he thought that was all rather absurd, because where is the news coming from now? He said basically, "You people seem to think what he has to say is news, and devote all this coverage to it him whenever one of these tapes come out."

Was I dreaming? Brilliant! (And stay out of small airplanes).

21. Something big is going to drop
aA new scandal, or one getting deeper and stinkier. Maybe kkkarl is going to bite the dust, or the long promised photos and videos are about to hit the fan.Whenever these people want you to look north you better damn well look south, by the pricking of my thumbs, something evil this way comes.
