Pakistani Taliban Claim Credit for Failed NYC Times Square Car Bombing

What does it say about an organization that is so quick to claim credit for colossal screw-ups? "We're the Taliban! OK, so maybe we aren't smart enough to get the bomb to go BOOM, but aren't you even a little bit intimidated?"

Aren't you reading this? The thing was PRERECORDED before the bomb was even planted. They expected to be celebrating a great victory. They did not know when they recorded this statement that the damn thing was going to fail!
