Obama: Bin Laden tape is proof
The Politico44 ^ | January 26,2010 | MATT NEGRIN

A tape of Osama bin Laden claiming responsibility for the Dec. 25 attempted terrorist attack is proof that the Al Qaeda leader is too weak to give orders himself, President Barack Obama said in an interview with Diane Sawyer on Monday.

“Al Qaeda, itself, is greatly weakened from where it was back in 2000,” Obama

Regardless of Al Qaeda’s diminished capability, these determined terrorists will continue to deliver blows and Obama doesn’t understand this. He is intellectually dishonest, obfuscating, and dangerously naive. He and the Democrats will be held accountable for his colossal mistakes. Unfortunately our brave and honorable soldiers, sailors,airmen and marines will be left to clean it up. WMD’s are still as big a threat today as they were in the past.

Who will die because Obama calls Osama out to prove himself??

(Of course I think Osama is dead, but Al Qaeda is still outthere.)

“Al Qaeda, itself, is greatly weakened from where it was back in 2000,” Obama.

But he didn't say that is Bush's fault, did he?

Al Qaeda is nothing but code meaning Islamic terrorism.

If I remember rightly, Obama's first pronouncements on the Christmas day bomber were that he was a "lone actor", an individual convert to terrorism who was not a part of any plot.

In attempting to check my memory out, I googled "Obama Christmas Day bomber". Seems Google has scrubbed all Obamas comments about the event until he came out and said it was al Qaeda related on Janruary 6th or 7th.

Goebbles would have been proud of this White House.

Yeah, I know. My take is this. Before September 11th, we couldn’t get enough film of this guy spouting his terrorist garbage. Then, after December 2001 (Tora Bora) all of the video stopped and all we get is audio. They say the audio is authenticated. Ha. Tell me there are no muslim Rich Little’s. I think it’s in many peoples interest, on both sides, to keep this dude above the top soil. He’s buried deep in side a cave somewhere and he ain’t talking, he’s more like playing music backwards, as in decomposing......If I am wrong and they drag him up from a rat hole somewhere, great. If not, they’ll just keep him going for a while.

Agreed. They have been regrouping for 9 years. It was 8 years between the WTC bombing in ‘93 and 911.

We are very vulnerable with this clown in the WH. Everyday the window on the next attack is closing.
