OBL's support for liberal dems can easily be seen as an attack on the American presidential election process. The correlation of OBL's views with those of the majority of the Arab-American portion of the electorate is as plain as day. It clearly affords an unflatoring picture of where Arab-American sentiment lies. There's only one solution available to the liberal Arab media concerned about public perception of Arab-American loyalties -- spin like a tornado.
So what do we get instead of an honest evaluation of OBL's conduct and motives? We get an coughed-up depiction of him as not as bloodthirsty, but rather, publicity seeking and self-agrandizing -- like any good Democrat.
I was watching Nightline talking about this last night and I just about ralphed. BOTH the weasel talking heads were working the Kerry spin, "Oh, you can tell Osama did this to help Bush!"
Yeah, the American people are buying that, all right. Which is why Bush got a bump, and Kerry fell--Americans want to do what Osama wants! /sarcasm
If I hear any more of this "Osama knows Bush would be good for recruiting so he spoke to get us to elect Bush" b.s. I'm gonna fly to Hawaii and vote for Bush AGAIN.
