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

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.

The only thing he is ever outraged about is being off the front page. He wants everything to be all about Kerry.

"I think it's unfortunate that anybody puts Osama bin Laden into any political context in the United States' election."

What a laugh. Kerry's whole gripe against Bush's Iraq War is that we should have concentrated on getting Osama Bin Laden.

Sheesh.

According to the tin-foil hat wing of the DNC, Dubya will be boarding an SR 71 to Pakistan to give UBL his payoff cash.

He'll still be in the Senate.

I wonder how many buddies he'll still have there, besides Teddy. Many Dems may shun him if he looses convincingly.

Yes, I think Karl beat him to it and his makeup was very convincing.

I saw that too - and the "cokehead" remark. What a little snot - just like his mother.

OBL is echoing John Kerry and Michael Moore's statements. I'd be shaking in my boots if I were those two.

By the way, did you see SNL last night, LOL.

You said in reference to John Kerry: He will win MA., but the numbers might surprise you.

Teddy is up for relection in 2006 and sKerry in 2008. The Republicans in MA need to be encouraged to find a strong candidate to challenge BoTh of those Senate seats.

BTW, Did you know you can email Sen. John Kerry at http://kerry.senate.gov/bandwidth/contact/email.html ??

How about a few hundred emails that ask him to sign the DoD form 180? Just a thought.

The New York Post has an article which reveals what the media has NOT revealed about the witheld parts of the Bin Laden tape. It is VERY interesting. Here it is: http://newyorkpost.com/news/nationalnews/33063.htm

Even without a mask, Kerry could pass for bin Laden's brother!

Re: e-mailing him -

even as a constituent, he never responds to an e-mail. His office never responds to an e-mail. He is a total slime ball.

I hope "Hanoi John" is outraged, mad as hell, with a
splitting headache. Because, I'm pissed that he
inserted himself in our electoral process, and hope
to contribute to his bad health.

BS. He's really outraged by receiving Osama's endorsement.
