DOHA, Qatar (CNN) -- In an audiotape broadcast Tuesday on the Arabic television network Al-Jazeera, a voice purported to be that of Osama bin Laden called on Muslims to fight any U.S.-led attack on Iraq and warned leaders of Islamic nations not to help the so-called enemy.

Now what are the Dems going to do? Will the liberal media hold the Dem's feet to the fire since OBL and Saddam made our argument for us?

The Dems will claim the tape, if proven not to be authentic, was fabricated by the Bush administration to bolster their claim Al Quada and Iraq are connected.
If the tape proves to be authentic, then the Dems will use it as justification that the war on terror is a failure since OBL is still alive.
Either way, this tape is a win-win situation for the dems. What is more interesting is how Germany/France will react to it. There is an AP article posted on FR that states German security officials have authenticated the tape. The question now remains, how they will react to the Al Quada/Iraq connection.

"The Dems will use it as justification that the war on terror is a failure since OBL is still alive."
If you extend that reasoning then WWII was a failure until April, 1945 when Hitler was finally dead. Democrats are both hapless and hopeless...

"This just reinforces that bad guys hang with other bad guys, that they swim in the same cesspool," I love the Bush administration for the no nonsense way of putting things. Much better than the monkey dance the Clinton admin used to do.

We could find Osama with his head up Saddam's butt and the Dems would say that is no proof!
That's because the Dems practice that habit with themselves!

"...Now what are the Dems going to do? Will the liberal media hold the Dem's feet to the fire since OBL and Saddam made our argument for us?..."It will be curious, RJ. The liberal-media won't say sh*t until they get their marching-orders from the DNC.
Even McCaulawful knows that the mother-of-all-asskickings is about to start, and it would be imprudent to be on the wrong side.
L'il Tommy Dasshole will natter about unimportant things, and the war will happen! He'll act surprized. Hildabeaste has his bung-hole hammered shut.
Naw, the RATS won't do anything until American Soldiers start coming home in body-bags - then they'll bitch. Of course, millions of the Islamaniacs are gonna die, but that won't be a problem for the media until the war is over.
Oddly, the media DOES hate Democracy...............FRegards
PS: Russ, where-the-hell have you been?.......

I only quilt baby-seal pelts. Nice and warm, and a bonus - the meat tastes something like chicken, or a spotty-owl............FRegards

The CIA could get a 70mm film with Dolby sound of Osama giving Saddam a Lewinsky and the Dems would deny any connection between the two.

Putting reason and democrats in the same sentence - you know where I'm going with that.
The Dems will grasp at any stray, as illogical as it might be, to regain power. Even to the detriment of our country. IMO, the Dems are the reason we are in a war against terrorism now and they will not be satisfied unless we lose that war.
