Bin Laden Compliments Michael Moore

Al Qaida mastermind Osama bin Laden paid tribute to leading Kerry supporter, conspiracy filmmaker Michael Moore on Friday, by invoking a scene from his movie "Fahrenheit 9/11" to attack President Bush.

In his first appearance on video in more than a year, the delusional terrorist leader described the segment in Moore's film where the president continued to read the children's book "My Pet Goat" to a Florida elementary school class after he got word that America was under attack.

"It appeared to Bush," said bin Laden, "that a little girl’s talk about her goat and its butting was more important than the planes and their butting of the skyscrapers. That gave us three times the required time to carry out the operations, thank God."

Echoing Moore's complaint, the fugitive terrorist continued:

"It never occurred to us that the commander in chief of the US armed forces would leave 50,000 of his citizens in the two towers to face these horrors alone at a time when they were most in need of him."

Moore has set the tone for Democrats this year since December - when he openly criticized Bush as a National Guard "deserter" while campaigning for Gen. Wesley Clark.

In July, Moore was feted at the Democratic National Convention, where he was invited to sit in ex-President Jimmy Carter's box.

Earlier this month, Moore began openly fundraising for Kerry during his speaking engagements.

The Democratic Party filmmaker has yet to say whether he approved of bin Laden's use his movie as a vehicle to attack the president.

MM should be ashamed, deeply ashamed of the damage he has caused this country. My only hope is karma gets to him.

I had a surreal moment tonight. Michael Savage on the radio calling for the arrest of Michael Moore for sedition while at the same time Michael Moore was being interviewed on CNN.

Could we make it a house arrest? Could you imagine the cost to the taxpayer to FEED him?

I wouldn't be surprised if the speech itself was written by Moore. He certainly has connections, he could easily find a way to put a speech into OBLs hands.

Maybe this whole Bin Laden release will be an example of what this election was about to future historians. Bin Laden reminded us what a real enemy says about America and Kerry sounds just a bit too much like him.

In regards to Osama Bin Laden's tape (Dept. of Justice's take on it.)

While Shepard Smith (FOX NEWS around 7:30PM EDT) was reporting on a Bush rally tonight during a live feed he said (voice over)

Shep

"I tell you this with this information from our sources at the DoJ, according to US officials, US intelligence analysts are concerned that the tapes from UBL and the one about which we just spoke {Adam Gahdahn (yahyah)} might be a signal for an impending attack... Quoting here: "Analysts have for months believe that the emergence of a Bin Laden message would signal an impending attack" that from the official ... another quote here "there is a seriousness and an urgency with the emergence of this Bin Laden tape that surpasses anything we've seen before." Again - that from a US official quoted to our sources at the DoJ. The official said analysts are linking the 2 tapes and examining the tone and symbolism of the 2 tapes. They believe that the 1st tape from someone who appears to be an American, and may be this Adam Gahdahn, symbolizes brute force and al Qaeda's presence in the US. .. the offical said that the message of that tape is "We are Here"... the tone of the Bin Laden tape shows an attempt to justify the killing of innocents the official said... much more on this from our sources at the DoJ...

cut to Arnold introducing Bush (at rally)

Bin Ladens whole rant was directed at liberals. He spoke about oppression in America. And who in America considers themselves oppressed? Liberals of course.

Michael Moore's just supporting Kerry out of convenience. Osama Bin Laden will always be #1 in his book.

I think the whole "goat" thing is code. I think UBL is saying to MM, "you are my pet, my goat," or something like that.

Moore is pure evil. He has damaged this country and he viciously slandered out great soldiers. I pray this evil man doesn't see the new year. I never thought I could feel such hatred but the left is is so vile, so corrupt that anyone who believes in our troops, in the greatness of this Republic has to feel abject anger at the lies and attacks. I am not convinced the left is the greatest threat to America's survival. Terrorists are being defeated easily compared to the left. The are deeply entrenched. In the coming years the left will bring on a civil war and they WILL lose.

When I heard some of the excerpts I told my husband that Osama sounds just like a democrat.
