The amazing, astounding, invisible, indestructible, terrifying Osama bin Laden!

[Philosoraptor]

Where IS the man who attacked the U.S. of A.? Is he alive? Is he dead? Is that him walking up your basement stairs? Is he still out there, threatening us STILL? Is he of no concern, or should we all be scared shitless of the hairy evil one?

Can we talk about him, or has that become just too, too boring? Is he real, or irrelevant? Is he a ghost? A phantom in a cave? Is he in Pakistan, or Philadelphia? Have we known all along where he is? Is there some complicated geo-political reason we're not going after him? Is he 'on the run' like scary fran over at the dept. of the homeland says?

Don't you think it's insulting the way they keep dodging the Osama questions? Questions about why we've failed to capture the perp of nine eleven induce the official white house spokespersons to drift off into rambling, incoherent drivel.

Osama is clearly the baddest bad guy EVER, hands down. You can't find him, yet he's always right around the corner, in the shadows like a troglodyte, leering at you, laughing at your terror like the Joker in a bad Batman comic. He's dead, yet he lives! He's found, but then he slips away like the Riddler, to return another day with another fiendish plot against the forces of niceness.

The neo cons see us as children, too stupid to figure it all out, dupes, rubes, malleable masses, morons who have to have things explained to them in comic book terms.

I WANT STRAIGHT ANSWERS about Osama bin Laden, in fact, I've looked up as much info on him as possible, and I KNOW why the bush's are being so vague and dodgy about the bin Laden/bush family connections going back decades.

Why hasn't more of a big deal been made about bush's failure, or outright dis-interest in getting the man who allegedly brought America to it's knees in terror? Why isn't the question asked every day? Where is Osama? Why do you never mention him anymore? Exactly what the fuck is going on in the search for public enemy number one?

1. Why did the US fly OBL's family home to safety after 911?

Inquiring minds want to know! Peace, KIm

5. there are bush ties with the bin laden posse.

2. Brought America to its knees in terror?

Shock, awe, horror, grief. But I don't remember anyone being particularly terrified outside Manhattan.

Sept 12, rule change: When stews and passengers are being slain, do NOT give up the airplane.


I think we can make an "Osama pool" from the possibilities.

1. Osama is in Pakistan, and we respect their sovereignty, so will rely on that ally.
2. Osama is dead, on ice in Area 51, and will be thawed in a televised "capture" just before the '08 general election. Cue Geraldo.
3. There is no Osama. He's made up of Ali Baba, Gollum, and Lord Voldemort imagery.
4. Osama is in Pakistan, and we will invade just before the '08 general election. Cue Geraldo.
5. Osama died of disease, and is buried in an anonymous hole in the desert. The myth lives forever.
6. Osama is fine and will never be captured. His capture would end the need for Dept of Homeland Security, TSA, all that big-buck bureaucracy. We need him out there, a perpetual boogeyman.

Ya plays your money, takes your chances.

3. Of course we were brought to our knees. Osama won and it is obvious.

We did everything he would have us do.
george especially did exactly what osama wanted
and continues to this day to do his bidding.

13. Yes, we overreacted to the tune of Billions ...

I'm just glad that Richard Reid smuggled explosives in his shoe, and not rectally. Think of the TSA inspection lines that could have been ...

:rofl:

4. Hey there Philosoraptor. You are on a tear this morning. I agree with you

100%. Is this you winding down from a long night or winding up for a really bad ass day? Just curious, I feel in the same place you seem to be this am.

Just when you feel like there is nothing that can shock you ..... well you know the rest.

Have a great day.

9. Morning, noon and night.

Sleep is for mortals.

[Decruiter]

15. We are mortal, just sleepless, call it something like the "cassandra syndrome"....

later on the feeling has been trivialized. Chicken Little, Conspiracy Nut (my personal fav), Communist, Liberal (another fav) and well you know the list is endless, coming soon though, could we see internal insurgents? The definition being one who give aid to the opposition. The definition being one who opposed the "administration", the government of Iraq or Afghanistan.

Pretty scary stuff, Maynard.

I just keep telling myself to breath, this is nothing we did not know was coming. We are sleepless for a reason, a few of us are ever vigilant.

We have those amongst us who are nocturnal and those amongst us that wake up with the sun.

6. Sounds like the title of a book

[Virginia Dare]

7. You would have thought that when Georgey was playing..

tonsil hockey with Osama's uncle, he would have at least casually asked him where he might be? :shrug:

8. Business partners protect each other.

[shadowknows69]

10. I hear that Lex Luthor and Solomon Grundy have called a meeting

to elect him new leader of the Legion of Doom

[Philosoraptor]

11. Theeeere's no need to fear, Blunderdubya's here!!!111

[Philosoraptor]

12. ...........

[conspirator]

14. Osama would prefer to burn to ashes than being captured alive. So he is probably dead n/t

[kineneb]

16. biggest, meanest, baddest guy...attached to a dialysis machine

or at least that is one rumor... he is either holed up in a ritzy cave w/electricity and water, dead or installed in the WH basement, where he can share his ideas for the destruction of the US with King George and Darth Cheney.
