CRONKITE: KARL ROVE BEHIND BIN LADEN TAPE Sat Oct 30 2004 16:31:19 ET

Former CBSNEWS anchorman Walter Cronkite believes Bush adviser Karl Rove is possibly behind the new Bin Laden tape.

Cronkite made the startling comments late Friday during an interview on CNN.

Cronkite said he is "inclined to think that Karl Rove, the political manager at the White House, who is a very clever man, he probably set up bin Laden to this thing."

Interviewer Larry King did not ask Cronkite to elaborate on the provocative election eve accusation.

Cronkite is accusing President Bush (by implication) and Karl Rove of Treason. He is implying a connection between Rove and our enemy, the man responsible for the death of 3,000 people on 9/11. All Americans should demand an apology--regardless of party affiliation.

"Well, by golly, I think you're right. I think I do owe the American people, an, er, an...where was I?

LOL.

We need intervention for these people.

How does this work? Karl calls Osama and says "Hey, buddy it would really help the president if you'd release a tape. And this time to it on camera to convince people you're alive."

So they really do have Bin Laden somewhere in a cave.

Wait until Karl brings him out on Monday... then we'll see who's right! *g

.....To think Cronkite was once one of the most trusted men in America?....

Really? I never did like him and I never did trust him. How he got the title "most trusted man in America" is still a mystery to me.

(I always watched good 'ol "Chet & Dave" myself. "G'nite Chet....G'nite David....")

Walter. You "has been". STFU.

Yo, Rovemeister!


Is Osama here. How you do? Hope all is well with campaign for evil, etc. (How about that John Kerry wife - the crazy one. Two burkas for her at least! Kerry, he was surely wearing the fermented hummous goggles when they wed!)


Anyways, maybe can help campaign with new video, featuring me in star role. See attachmented clip below.


Yours in happiness,

Osama

Osama, you old dog!


By all means, please release this video ASAP. And, as we’ve previously discussed, for every percentage point we gain in the swing states we’ll send you another kidney we’ve harvested from murdered Democrats in Florida.


Best wishes,

Karl

For all these years we thought he was the most trusted man in America, but he was actually a paranoid schizophrenic. Schizoids can be very disarming and deceivingly dangerous.

I still call Viacom Investor Relations (1-800-516-4399) and CBS News (212-975-4321) to keep up the pressure. I let them know that the Heyward, Rather, Mapes debacle won't be swept under the rug after election day.

So they really do have Bin Laden somewhere in a cave. They drugged him up and convinced him it was 9/12/01 and tricked him into reading this script in front of a camera.

And, Monday they can announce that they have caught him because something on the tape gave his hiding place away. Rove is brilliant.

Cronkite battled Donald Trump when Trump was building his Trump World Plaza building near the UN.

Cronkite was pissed that the building would block his view of the Chrysler building. Here's a short paragraph. Notice where Cronkite lives:

Mr. Cronkite lives in an apartment on the 25th floor of 870 United Nations Plaza and will have his view of the Chrysler Building blocked by Mr. Trump’s new tower, the article stated. Other residents in his building complex who are opposed to Mr. Trump’s tower include Walter Wriston, former chairman of Citibank, and William H. Donaldson, a founder of Donaldson, Lufkin & Jenrette, the article noted.

Mr. Cronkite even wrote a letter to President Kim Dae Jung of South Korea imploring him to prevail upon the Daewoo Corporation, the principal lender for the Trump project, to use its influence and alter the plan for the tower.

That's just plain nuts, Chronkite is gone off the deep end. Timing of this is very suspect to as one of the MSM, not sure off hand which one, just ran a documentary on Chronkite with "the most trusted man in america' theme. I had a feeling the public were being primed for something anti-Bush coming out of Chronkites mouth this weekend, but not something as insane as this. This gets weirder by the moment.
