No wonder Dubya was so happy reliving his jet flying days in college..

Hmmmm....is this a respectable publication?

[freedomson]

Sounds wonderful but.......

World Tribune is filled with fairy tales.

[hapy]

that would be so great if true!

please please be true

[Just mythoughts]

A May Day present to the communists/socialists. HOPEFULLY!

Here we go again.

The World Tribune quoting Al Hayat is a little like Bill Clinton quoting Baghdad Bob.

To be filed in the same place as DEBKA quoting a friend of Batboy.

ditto

[ConservativeDude]

the Democraps are gonna be furious if true...

Hmmm. Trying to ignore this and not get excited. If I allowed myself to believe it fully, my whole day would be shot.:-'

If true. . .that would be incredible; and an incredible blow to every Leftist in America. . .

[ewing]

Would we debreif him if caught for a couple of days?

"The World Tribune quoting Al Hayat is a little like Bill Clinton quoting Baghdad Bob."

. . .a 'back-to-earth' bump perhaps. . .

[Mo1]

Does this mean he won't be sending anymore faxes from his cave?

[ewing]

I already checked, not a peep on Deb-caca yet..

[mikegi]

I don't know the reliability of the World Tribune but I seriously doubt UBL will be taken alive. He's the one AQ leader that won't raise his hands in surrender like all the other self-proclaimed AQ martyrs do when cornered. Of course, this assumes that UBL is still alive.

[dc-zoo]

Dasshole will be saddened. Deeply saddened.

[IronJack]

Yes, and they could have captured Elvis. Or Judge Crater. Or Amelia Earhart. Maybe all four of them. If Judge Crater is a tenor, they've got themselves one hell of a barbershop quartet.
