I'd love it if Rummy put bin Laden's stuffed head on the wall in his office.
Unfortunately, like fleas on a hounddog, his murderous minions infest the world. Yes, London, Ireland, Europe, etc.. 'Come, Watson, the game's afoot!' indeed.
I, too, believe Osama Been Lyin' is dead. The problem I have with the explanation is when he mentioned it in the debates, the president emphatically said, (paraphrased) we have killed or camptured 75% of his members and we'll get him too.
I think the military and CIA intelligence believe he is dead but they just cannot prove it. I see no reason not to declare him dead on, say, October 31st, or November 1st and let Kerry prove otherwise. If OBL were alive, he wouldn't have time to make a new video, ship it to Al Jazeera by Donkey Express and get it shown on world wide TV before the election was over. This would be a Karl Rove special.
Further "proof" that UBL is takin' the dirt nap:
1. No one has claimed the $25 million bounty on his head.
2. No campaign contribution check signed by UBL has been submitted to the FEC for review by the democratic party.
3. UBL has not mysteriously appeared in France, living the good life on the Riviera.
4. The number of flies in Afghanistan has multiplied exponentially, approaching biblical numbers.
5. There are no credible reports of a near-7 foot man wandering the mountains of Afghanistan/Pakistan dragging a dialysis machine behind him.
6. UBL has not made an appearance on 60 Minutes.
7. Elanor Clift has STILL not gotten laid.
8. UBL has not shown up triumphantly in the streets of Tehran, leading the annual "We live in a third-world sh*thole day" parade.
9. He hasn't made an appearance on Oprah.
10. He hasn't been seen starring in a democratic party attack ad questioning GW's National Guard service.
Just food for thought...
Mind the gap!
yes I agree, he is dead. The last video we saw of him he was very weak and sick. Remember him seated beside someone and the other man did the talking. OBL could barely hold his head up and his left arm appeared to hang lifeless by his side. Maybe he did by a bomb strike but he could just have easily died from natural causes. I wish someone had that tape or stills from it. The 2 were seated in front of water, a river or a lake.
LOLOLOL!
The hard part is proving he's dead. He can be proven alive, but if he's a dark smear in a cave full of rubble it's kinda hard to prove he isn't.
I think he's alive but has to stay in hiding so he can stay alive. But I hope he's dead.
Bush fuzzed that up by saying "of course we're on the hunt for him"... but maybe that quote represented a little slip, and he has good reason to believe that OBL is gone-gone?
Video? Are you sure? I thought the video claim in this article was wrong but then I realized that most of the UBL communications since Tora Bora have been audio tapes. When was the last UBL video?
BUMP
I agree is is a Black Velvet Osama...
Everyone in MSM seems to forget what Rumsfield and Bush told you prior to war......If we get him, we won't be able to tell you due to security reasons, if we don't, the same.
Not quoated exactly...but I remember them saying this VERY CLEARLY.
Why are you posting a picture of Alan Colmes in a thread about UBL?
Jag
Patty Murray must be sad.
