here's a way to get John Kerry to hold his tongue (Teresa, too)
1) Kerry could get his tongue pierced with a ring.
2) Then he could have someone attach rings to both Kerry's top lip and his bottom lip.
3) Add a yale lock*
4) Throw away the key.

DUBAI (Reuters) - Osama bin Laden accused George W. Bush on Saturday of deceiving Americans and said the Sept. 11 attacks would not have been so severe if the U.S. president had been alert.
Bin Laden, appearing in a video on Al Jazeera four days before the U.S. presidential election and gesturing at the camera with a finger to stress points, made his clearest comments yet taking responsibility for the Sept 11 attacks.
"Despite entering the fourth year after Sept. 11, Bush is still deceiving you and hiding the truth from you and therefore the reasons are still there to repeat what happened," said the al Qaeda leader, making his first video appearance for more than a year.
The Bush administration resembled "corrupt" Arab governments, he said.
Bin Laden, apparently sitting or standing at a table against a neutral brown background, wore a white head covering and white tunic under a light brown cloak.
Reading from a sheet of paper, his voice was strong and he appeared in fair health, his full beard a mixture of white and dark gray.
A U.S. official said U.S. intelligence agencies believed that it appeared to be bin Laden on the tape.
Bush has ordered U.S. forces to get bin Laden dead or alive and American officials have said they suspect he is hiding in the border area between Afghanistan and Pakistan.
An editor at Al Jazeera said the Qatar-based channel had received the video tape on Friday but did not say how. He said the tape was new but did not give any details.
Saudi-born bin Laden appeared in a video tape broadcast by Al Jazeera in September 2003, showing him and his deputy Ayman al-Zawahri descending a mountainside calling for jihad and praising the Sept. 11 hijackers.
In April, Arab television stations broadcast an audio tape purportedly from bin Laden offering a three-month truce to Europeans if they withdrew troops from Muslim nations. The deadline expired with no word from bin Laden.

I don't think that there is going to be an attack right before/during/right after the election. It just doesn't make sense that he would give prior warning of this. This is what I am praying for, anyway. Did they give prior warning in Spain?
My own thought: He doesn't care about who wins so much as he cares about seeing people scramble around when he releases a video. Best thing we could do (next to impossible) is to publicly misinterpret what he's saying as an ad for "My Pet Goat" and encourage everyone to go out and buy it.
Usama Ping Laden!
God is preserving OBL for some purpose.
Brilliant observation.

Osama is being held in my shed along with 380 tons of explosives. I let him make the tape to endorse Kerry.
LOL!! That's a good one!!!
We got a tape, not an attack. Spain had attacks... we didn't
bin Laden was parroting Michael Moore
tape only helps GWB
Then Fox ran the Whatever it takes commercial
Yes. But only since I left the Democratic party.
UBL even commented that W looked bad listening to a small child read while the attacks began! DNC talking points?
That's creative.
Bin Laden undoubtedly has registered on DU, DNC, and Kerry/Edwards sites.
Still not sure that's him, but then, they all look alike to me.
