There is not enough air in Bin Laden's entire body to generate a dry fart...

I still *THINK* it was a computer generated thing using his speech patterns to refine a native speaker already a lot like Bin Laden.

I have always felt that Bin Laden was dead.
I also always hoped that we would never come to that conclusion, as long as we have to convince Liberals and their allies that we need to be serious about the War on Terror.
If there is another attack on the US, we dont need everyone thinking that we have to start from scratch with a new villain. We are better off no knowing.
It would not surprise me if the Government knows that he's dead, but wont pass on that information. We need to justify defense spending, the missile shield, the F-22, and a bunch of other programs. Having a bad-guy around is fine with me if it keeps Liberal mouths shut.

I don't know about that. If anything, Republicans stood to gain more politically if OBL was still alive since that would reinforce their national security agenda. Look at it this way. Republicans sweep the government, sign the homeland security bill that essentially destroys the 4th ammendment, and decide that OBL just might be dead after all. hmmmmm

Agree; and I hope it was a deservably miserable death.

[Cue Doctor McCoy clip from the typical Star Trek episode] "It's worse than that, he's dead, Jim!"

Great. The entire US Government has just been shown-up by a 90-year-old cuckoo clock maker in the Alps...

Bin Laden is as dead as Al Gore

We (the Bush administration) have no problem with people thinking Osama is alive ....It helps us catch his followers ...and it makes the Democrats look like fools

I wish they (experts and gov't types) would all just ignore all tapes and call his bluff. If he's alive, then HE has to prove it, otherwise just go on the assumption that we killed him. Period!

Wow! Now that's some "deadness".
To: FreedomCalls
He died in a cave at Tora Bora like we all presumed. That is my best guess as well.
Unfortunately even if his head was on a pike in Manhattan, there are those who would claim he was alive and the head was a fake.

I agree with you 100%. An Iraqi forgery designed and timed perfectly to take heat off Saddam. Many experts claimed it was odd that Bin laden mentioned the iraqis in the statement. That was also added for Saddams benefit.

I normally don't agree with folks from Switzerland BUT... If Mr Laden was alive, he would surely be airing an audio or video once a week to further the jihad against the people he hates. For him to produce a video tape stating that he is, in fact, alive and has beaten the enemy would garner much support with the goofballs that he associates with. Maybe he has retreated to Palestine and is one of the idiots throwing rocks there?????? The BIG question is, how can a low-life from a third world country affect the world this way? With all of the wisdom from the college educated folks who lead us in Washington, London, Moscow (they are our friends now), Madrid, Rome, and many other capitals, how is it that this rich cave man can be allowed to threaten the world this way? You tell me.

All I can hear clearly on that tape is Amelia Earhart's airplane engine running in the background.

Point well-taken. Good comment!

Well of course we will!
Islamic murderors think he is their hero.We will continue to list him as alive and the #1 target on our list for our own purposes.ie- he is in Iraq-BOOM.
in Yemin-BOOM
in Saudi Arabia-BOOM
in North Korea-BOOM, etc....
Nothing of War is "fun" for those who must actually conduct it, except the propoganda.Watching an enemy succumb to mind games is the only thing remotely considered "fun".
Don't be a spoilsport!LOL
I think I heard Osama was in France.....
