Have we caught the guy who caused 9-11 yet? What was his name?

You know, if I were running things and hadn't caught him yet, I sure as hell wouldn't be bringing up 9-11 every time I opened my mouth. I'd be afraid that someone might think I had some sort of agenda other than protecting the country from another attack by the guy.

Yeah, yeah. You know, that guy in Iraq. He was caught. Didn't you hear he's on trial. The trial must be about 9/11 but I can't figure out why the trial isn't here or at the Hague.

Wasn't saddam hussein the mastermind behind it all?
I'm shocked to hear he wasn't! Totally, totally shocked!

Osadama I think they called him.

I think that's the name

Graham of Florida for coming up with, or at least popularizing that moniker for the man behind the 9/11 disasters.

Senator Bob, I sure wish you hadn't had those clogged arteries mess up your plans to run for President in 2004.

in another direction except yours, you would not have to be afraid of anything. Even if you had caused 9-11 yourself. Kind of like Bu$h.
Peace

Al Gore is My President

W. Bush is not as smart as the guy in question and cannot figure out how to find him. Or is it that he just really likes scaring folks into supporting him so that they will forget what a goof he is.

You know, every time he isn't talking about "terror", 911, or the evil of Saddam, the subject of Bird flu rears its scary head.

The bastard wasn't invited to Crawford, so he flew commercial to Missouri. That is, he flew commercial until a "threat assesment" got made stating he should start flying government charters in July 2001. Too bad Ashcan didn't warn th eflying public.

Go Back to your cave and await instructions! You so outdid Yourself Bud! OBL looks like Rasta Man or something. :smoke:

Welcome to DU! :hi:

I always get a kick out of anyone catching that. And yes, I would put it in the back window, but I love it too much, and I live in Arkansas. Maybe on the Mazda work truck.:thumbsup: Thanks.

It's what I drive. ;)

That's a REAL joint. :smoke:

Nobody ever asks the pretzeldent or Condi about Osama either. There's never even an occasional "Yeah, we're still lookin" statement. WTF?

would say, "So Mr. P, can you give us an update on Osama?"

Wait, was his name Hayden? Or Smith? Or Azzid? Something like that?

Fuck I don't know. All I know is 9/11 CHANGED EVERYTHING EVEN IF I CAN'T REMEMBER WHO DID IT!!!!

Edit: Frist? Hadley? Still guessing here.

We're gettin' close I tell ya'. Only a few million Iraqis more and we'll narrow it down.

The guys who perpetrated 9/11 are still safe and sound, running our country into the ground.

Republicans wanted to present the image of being strong on terrorism. They say we are fighting them in Iraq so we don't have to fight them here, which is about the 5th reason for going to war. If we are fighting them over there so we don't have to fight them here, why couldn't we have just had a bigger presence in Afghanistan until we caught Bin Laden? We took on more fronts than necessary.

Bush doesn't care about catching Bin Laden, and he has pretty much said so. When he was called on it during the debate, he just said it was "one of those Ex ag er ations". Even when they SHOWED video of him making the statement of his lack of concern with Bin Laden, idiots STILL viewed him as being stronger on terror.

What REALLY gets me, is that after Bin Laden showed his mug on video a couple of days before election, it was good for Bush. HOW THE FUCK WAS IT GOOD FOR BUSH????? All the Dems had to do was yell and scream, "If Bush is strong on terror, WHY IS BIN LADEN STILL OUT THERE?" Commercial after commercial could have been used.

We can't make the same mistake with this coming elections. What people viewed as the republican's strength is an obvious weakness, and unless the Democratic party pushes that issue in a clear manner, we could be in trouble again, even with Bush's crap approval ratings.

He's trapped in the White House.

he SAID, immediately after the attacks that it was OBL, and somehow, miraculously, the names and complete bios of all 19 highjackers were also known immediately -- but OBL in fact denied being involved in the attacks and we have never been shown any evidence whatsoever that he was the "mastermind."

Why wouldn't a true leader want a complete, thorough, and transparent investigation into the events of 9/11? What is little king turd trying to cover up, anyway, with his gagging of Sibel Edmonds, stonewalling, and then testifying behind closed doors while sitting on Unca Dick's lap like a ventriloquist dummy? Why don't the bushbots ever question this? Why can't we see all the tapes immediately seized in the vicinity of the Pentagon attack? Why won't they show us the aircraft pieces supposedly laid out in some hangar somewhere? (AS IF pieces of commercial airliner are somehow "classified" or "related to national security") Why did Cheney (or was it Rum-filled? they're all variations of the same evil monster) say Flight 93 had been "shot down"??

OBL is basking on some beach somewhere, sipping sloe gin fizzes and thanking his lucky stars for his unending partnership with the BFEE that provides his monthly stipend and high-living unfettered free existence guaranteed for life (cemented by the gift of PROMIS software that keeps him up to date on the search for himself) in return for his "role" in 9/11.

Didn't we kick his butt in Iraqistan? He's on trial now at Nuremburg, I think....
:sarcasm:

money-launderers who provided the $500,000 for the 9/11 operation that would be a good start.

You say "Usama," I say "Osama"
This week, I've been having a few ongoing discussions about the use of "Osama" or "Usama" by various news outlets to describe O/Usama bin Laden, regarded as the leader of the al Qaeda terror organization.

Matthew Sheffield led me to this article at Slate from 2001, "How Do You Spell “Osama”?," and I've bounced the idea off of a few people - with slightly mixed results. So figuring there had to be a way to get to the bottom of why a lot of news organizations were using "Osama," I checked in with the Associated Press, whose stylebook many mediafolk follow to the comma. Here's what I got:

The AP uses "Osama" because it is the most common usage of the name. Transliteration seems to be the culprit here, as this manner of bringing a language's alphabet into another's is not perfect - especially when it comes to vowels in the Arabic->English shift. So while Slate states that "In a document published by the Wall Street Journal on Oct. 3, 2001, the al-Qaida leader Romanized his name as “Usama”," the common usage still begins with an "O". I'm not even going to start on the "al Qaeda, al-Qaida, al-Qaeda, al Qaida" thing. And you thought "and sometimes Y" was tough to follow!

So be prepared for Bush, when confronted about why he hasn't found Usama yet, to throw up his hands and, with that smirk and obnoxious giggling/snorting, and say, "Hahaha, My bad! I've been looking in the 'Os!'...hahaha"
