Kerry 'Outraged' Over Bin Laden Tape Impact

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.

Here is more from today's New York Post.
Chris Heinz made the following comments.....
One of the things I've noticed is the Israeli lobby, the treatment of Israel as a 51st. state, a sort of a swing state.

Kery is so Unfit it isn't funny.
We are at war - how can he expect to control this? If he's 'outraged', he is telling OBL that the tape was effective.
Kerry has been outraged many times during his campaign - from the swiftvets to Sinclair he wants to sqealch anything and everything that challanges him.
Kerry is so out of touch, he doesn't understand the foundations of this republic - or maybe he does and wants to destroy it.

Kerry is a certifiable meglamaniac. The guy Osama Bin Laden kills thousands of our citizens and Kerry mentions how upset he is that he is inserting himself into our elections.

This explains Kerry's courting of the muslim vote.

Amen to that!
Note to JFK - You might have some credibility if you condemn your political ally - Michael "lie-because-they-will-probably-believe-it" Moore. After all, he had some of the same talking points as OBL, did he not? It will be fun to see you back in the Senate on Wednesday morning - if you can make it. Yes, it will cut into things like biking and windsurfing and spending time at the mansions and driving the family's SUV, but you are, after all, getting paid to work there.

Thes Jew hating America minions of satan himself are a blooming disgrace...they spout the same thing as Osama bin Loony. We are dealing with an enemy within conspiring with the UN World Communist cabal to take down America and rid the world of Jews and Christians...for their Communist utopia, brought about on the terror fields by their Muhammadan fellow travelers...

I know why Kaptain Ketchup is 'outraged' about the Osama bin Ladin tape: He is 'outraged' because the tape was the coup-de-grace for his campaign. He was already going down to defeat, the tape just amplified the process.
