3. I haven't heard much about people not believing it's real, but
it smells pretty bad to me! I'd buy the close to the 9/11 aniversary story, but blaming the Dems, and the reference to the influence of Capitalism just doesn't sound like Bin Laden to me. It sounds a lot more like a decent PPub composit of their message, and with such perfect timing to 9/112, and the Petreus info too! PPerhapse I'm too skeptical, but then Shrub made me that way!

4. maybe they no longer buy Dems = Osama, Osama = Dems
He uses Dem talking points, so let's keep them marginalized and then we will be fighting terror and all.
Let's build more billion dollar bridges to nowhere, those people on the Gulf Coast don't need homes,
more billons for those poor Saudis, they need our help.

5. I've heard more discussion
of his new "Just for Men" beard.

Maybe he has a new script writer who hasn't hit his stride yet. No Oscar winning performance for this one, that's for sure.

8. No it is not and it has notihng to do with is this real
the media has deflated this the same way I have

WHY THE HELL IS THIS REACHING THE US PRSS and DIDN"T BUSH PROMISE TO GET HIM DEAD OR ALIVE?

Yes, it is that simple

Anything else... well I think IT IS him.... and it fits the Arab Brotherhood MO... is just blather

Concentrate on those two questions.

It WORKS

Hell, that is how the local bully RW got disarmed yesterday...

12. I would welcome the opportunity to actually watch it all the way through
They just show us snippets, and give us their interpretation of what he's saying. I would like to see and hear for myself what's on the tape.

14. Here, here, why is it so hard
to cover the actual CONTENT of this video? It's getting annoying, and just a little fishy, to be honest.

17. Interesting - he's got the media pegged
Maybe that's why they're not showing it:
"And your information media, during the first years of the war, lost its credibility and manifested itself as a tool of the colonialist empires, and its condition has often been worse than the condition of the media of the dictatorial regimes which march in the caravan of the single leader"

18. Whoever wrote the text of the video really reached too far. Global warming? I mean, really now.
You can't bullshit a bullshitter, as they say.

The whole thing reads like a laughable parody of what Rush Limbaugh or the South Park boys would have Osama Bin Laden say, making sure to lump in the Democrats into the speech in time for 08 elections.

It really feels like they're not trying that hard anymore.

19. You got that right - they got the third string hack writers on it now
I think the repukes are losing a lot of money so they have to hire reject "Lost" writers
