Kerry 'Outraged' Over Bin Laden Tape Impact
NewsMax ^ | October 31, 2004 | Carl Limbacher

Posted on 10/31/2004 6:42:49 AM PST by Kaslin

John Kerry said Sunday that he's "outraged" that anyone would think the re-emergence of Osama bin Laden on a terror video released Friday may hurt his chances in next Tuesday's election.

"I'm outraged that he has appeared," Kerry told ABC News anchor Peter Jennings. "I'm outraged that he inserts himself in any kind of way into the electoral process of America."

Asked about comments from both his campaign and team Bush suggesting that the bin Laden tape gives the president a big boost in the closing days of the campaign, Kerry told Jennings, "I think it's unfortunate that anybody puts Osama bin Laden into any political context in the United States' election." When reminded that his surrogates were the first to address the bin Laden tape in a political context, Kerry said, "Well, I don't want them doing that. I think that's wrong. I think that every American is outraged at the sight of Osama bin Laden, and anything that he says about the American electoral process."

In fact, minutes after al Jazeera aired the terror tape, Kerry himself politicized the news, saying that bin Laden's continued survival was the result of Bush "outsourcing" the hunt for the terror chief in December 2001.

"I'm outraged that Bin Ladin has appeared," Kerry told ABC News anchor Peter Jennings.

Oh, good ! Maybe his head will explode !!

He probably knows it highlights his WEAKNESS on Natl Security .....


To ALL Freepers and Lurker voters:

GO to the polls and vote for Bush. Take your friends with you to do the same. If you know any Zell Miller type Democrats that support Bush and they are voting for him, take them as well.

Vote EARLY to avoid the rush, and remember:

IGNORE ANYTHING IN THE MEDIA YOU HEAR (i.e., making a fast, early call in Florida for Kerry, etc.). WE CAN AVOID A REPEAT OF THE FLORIDA ELECTION DEBACLE OF 2000 THIS YEAR IF GOP TURNOUT IS STRONG, imho.

"it's really all about him."

He's a narcisist. I mean, tell me brother & sister freepers, was there ever another person who brought a camera with them into a combat zone, so they could reenact their "heroics"? I think that is just crazy behaviour, and if my child ever did such a thing, I'd get them some mental help.

Who says stuff like "I don't fall down?" I mean, who thinks like this?

Not every single unbalanced person is sitting in the gutter mumbling to themselves, they don't all hear voices, but there are more people who are really wacky than one realizes. And Kerry fits into this catagory. I'm sure our nation could survive a crazy president, we probably have already, but it sure is a good reason not to vote for him.

Let us not forget the enemy within...remember, 40% of voters are siding with OBL's candidate, John Kerry, for a reason.

Which at the time, Kerry was in favor of....that is, before he was against it.

I'm outraged that Bin Laden came out and repeated democratic conspiracy theories and talking points.

Yeah. Guess we know who bin Laden supports!

He doesn't look very outraged here:

Stuff your outrage, Kerry. We all know your "outrage" is fake and calculated, along with everything else you say and do.

Maybe it was written by Moore who dressed up in a UBL halloween costume. He stood behind the podium because he was standing on box crates.
