Bush says '- I'll get bin Laden before I leave the WH'

[mogster]

Anything about this story in the US MSM? I can't remember seeing this mentioned here.

Three articles in Norw. media breaking the news on June 15th:
http://www.dagbladet.no/nyheter/2008/06/15/538219.html
(Bush will attempt to catch bin Laden, according to military sources)
http://www.vg.no/nyheter/utenriks/krigen-mot-terror/artikkel.php?artid=505119
(Bush will do a last attempt at catching bin Laden. According to Us and British intelligence and military sources)
http://www.aftenposten.no/nyheter/uriks/article2483985.ece
(Now bin Laden will be caught. Defence and intelligence sources in Washington and London confirms this)

Propaganda for the Scandinavian market or a omnious sign for what's to come, as Smirky McSmirkster signs off?



Is this the October surprise (or, September-October surprise, as it will go down these days for maximum effect)?
Will they drag Osama's body out of the deep freezer, thaw him up and put him in a man hole somewhere, to be found?
The grand finale of the Bush presidency?

A long hot summer of increased domestic threat level, multiple terror threats (like the summer of 2006) propelled to stardom by the three letter agencies and a MSM on constant lookout for opportunities to bring down the Dem candidate for being 'weak on security' (you know the drill), then suddenly, right before the election (space in between to be calculated by professional fear-and-response psychologists and method of release decided by experienced information planters)--ooops, there he is! Bin Laden, the man of our nightmares is TAKEN CARE OF by Republicans, Bush, Cheney. See, they just needed a little time to fix the whole thing, app. eight years. What is eight years to a population prepared for 'decades of terror war' anyway? Eight years will be nothing when the Man is gone.
Never mind if he stinks a bit, or that his corpse has started to rot because power conditions in Afghanistan where the freezer was plugged in isn't exactly, well, stable. Patch him up for the photo-op, and gloss over the details.
From September to the November election is only two months, meaning if they can keep the stench of rot down for two months, McCain can keep them out of trouble. If a new Repub president comes into power, it won't matter because nothing will be done about it. We've seen that, we've lived through the Bush presidency.

One week before the 2004 election, bin Laden turned up - apparently alive and threatening. Many people asked questions about that. What if he now turns up dead in time to blow some life into Bush?

[PDJane]

1. should be fun ..........

trying to resurrect a dead guy.

[Ian David]

2. Bush outsourced the job to The British, who keep leaving secret documents on the subway. n/t

[PBS Poll-435]

3. What? Like get him out of the trunk?

[Brigid]

4. Yeah, right.

Gonna "smoke 'im out" there, George? :eyes:

[Buns_of_Fire]

28. Ummmmm... Smoked bin Laden...

Warning: Certain brands of Smoked bin Laden have been shown to have been infected with Mad Chimp Disease.

[graywarrior]

5. Yeah, right.

Asshole.

[zanne]

6. OK; I think that Bin Laden is alive...

I also think that Bush and Co. has always known where he was. How could he release those scary videos every once in a while if we caught Osama? His usefulness for Bush is just about over.

[LaurenG]

7. I think the guy is dead and has been for some time.

Makes me wonder how he's going to "suddenly" pull that off if he is still alive though. :shrug:



edit typo

[renate]

8. in the UK papers too

I saw that over the weekend and steam came out of my ears. Seven years after 9-11 he decides it's a good time to get serious about Bin Laden?
http://www.timesonline.co.uk/tol/news/world/us_and_americas/article4138791.ece

On a more trivial note, it's interesting that he's only having tea with the Queen. In happier times, wouldn't the President of the United States have at least rated a dinner? Sounds like a classy little dis to me. Good for her, say I. :applause:

[mogster]

25. Thanks for that link

And sorry for late reply. Time zones makes my bedtime chime in exactly when debates are getting interesting ;-)

He's taken his time to get around to actually catching bin Laden, no?
I remember from 2004, when he said catching bin Laden wasn't that important.

Good pic in your sig line, btw. It would be the dream team, for sure.

[Flying Dream Blues]

49. Yes, I would say tea is quite the dis, and good for her!! nt

[MnFats]

9. logically: he'll either get him, or: he won't. most likely, he won't, so...

...all we'll have to show for this last-ditch effort is flattened Middle East cities, hunreds of dead American soldiers and marines,
hundreds of thousands of dead Iraqis, civilian and insurgent, and a world that hates uus even more...

[LaurenG]

Of course, we'll have to attack Iran and Pakistan too. nt

[aquart]

10. So he can leave the hot potato in Obama's hands?

Thanks, but no thanks. Pakistan can keep him.

[Disturbed]

16. It is highly unlikely.

Even if that occurs it won't matter much. Osama bin Laden is more of a figure head than the planner for al Q. His death by the US would probably have an opposite effect of staving off attacks from al Q. I seriously doubt if Osama is still living that he would be captured alive. I suspect that he is dead. This is more BS from the Silver Spoon Sociopath.

[Gold Metal Flake]

11. Damn. Freezer burn.

[tjwash]

12. They both look like they just puffed a thumb sized doobie.

Shrub looks like he's saying "dude...I'll take 86 of those whole fried chickens, and a coke"

[The Wielding Truth]

13. Off someone who looks like him. Sneak in some stored DNA.

Voila! Don't need that ghost any more. Let McCain get his own scary muslim to use as a boogie man.

How convenient that he can get Ben Laden when ever he wants.

[smoogatz]

14. On another note: What the fuck is wrong with his face?

Jeebus. He's starting to look like freaking Walter Brennan.

As for OBL: so, the implication is apparently that they could have caught him anytime in the last seven years, I guess. So if they do finally bring him out to the Rose Garden from his cage in the White House basement (bring out the gimp!), won't people ask "what the fuck were you waiting for?" Oh, wait—that would require actual questions from actual journalists. Never mind.

[mogster]

26. Yeah, the problem lies with the media

They don't ask questions the way they used to. Like they are supposed to.

About Bush* face; I guess it's that smirk thats finally getting to him :shrug:

[magellan]

15. Bush** still thinks it's all about him and his legacy

His end of term push to get bin Laden is as transparent as it gets. It should have been this important all along. Bush** is a vain, sadistic monster.

[wordpix]

17. just like he did at Tora Bora, sending the local yokels in. Some C-i-C, blech

:puke:

[CrispyQ]

18. Yawn. -nt

[no_hypocrisy]

19. Can anyone definitively tell me WHEN will * "leave the WH"?

[Swamp Rat]

20. They will defrost Osama's body sometime early September

:hi:

[mogster]

41. Heheh

:hi:

Nice to see you and your colorful work in this thread, lol ;-)

[Swamp Rat]

54. Way'at mogster!

:hi:

How's it going in Munchland? :D It's getting hot here in New Orleans.

[mogster]

57. We are fine, but not total summer yet

The beer is cold, though :P

:toast:

[Swamp Rat]

58. Of course you are fine.

You have some of the best ale on Earth. I practically lived at the Lundetangen Bryggeri when I was in Skien. :9 :beer:

I read they closed the brewery, :( and now Aass has licensed the name. http://www.aass.no

If I ever get a chance to visit Norway again, I plan to drink Lundetangen non-stop for at least a weekend. :D

:toast:

[mogster]

60. Yup, the beer is good

I must be a special feeling for the English-speaking lot to drink Aass beer, though ;-)
Haven't tasted Lundetangen, I think. But all breweries are centralized here as everywhere else, so it'll probably taste Aass all over in some years, haha!

If you come up here you must stop by, SR :-)

[helderheid]

21. He's pulling him out of the cold storage finally?

[SalmonChantedEvening]

22. Just like you "took care of the leaker"

I'd rather you d nothing, SFB.

[whistle]

23. All Dubya needs to do is call the CIA and ask that they bring in Bin Laden from the cold

[Frustratedlady]

24. It is critical that they find bin Laden. He holds the secret to longevity...

while experiencing serious kidney disease and moving from cave to cave. He might aid all humanity.

[Echo In Light]

29. Longevity, and a M$M-induced gloss-over directive to the public mind

[Quantess]

27. He will get coke before he leaves the party, though.

[Tim4319]

30. This is my theory on that!

I believe he is telling the truth. I believe Bin Laden is already dead. I believe Bin Laden has been dead for quite a while. I believe there is going to be a major bombing raid, they are going to search the rubble, and find Bin Laden's remains, but the only test they can run is some sort of DNA test that is going to prove that Bin Laden has bee killed. This is going to happen right before Bush leaves the White House, maybe even before the election.

This is just my theory on it. Like I said early, I believe they already have Bin Laden's remains, Bush are just going to use then as an "ace in the hole", to try and raise his approval rating right before he exits the White House.

[spanone]

31. they are probably thawing him out as we speak

[jmowreader]

32. They REALLY need to keep him away from the bottle before he goes on TV

OMG that boy is shitfaced.

[ToeBot]

33. "I'll be damed if I'll let Obama take advantage of MY patsy,...

besides, I need to shut-up Osama before he has a chance to spill his guts." - GW Bush.

[MiniMe]

34. Nothing like waiting till the last minute George

[Ganja Ninja]

35. I wonder what kind of odds I can get on that in Las Vegas? n/t

[Diclotican]

Don't belive it.. Mr Bush would not be anywhere nearer taking out, or arrest Bin Laden in October than he was in 2002... He is just a F**** shithead who belive his own lies.

På den andre siden, om Bin Laden hadde blitt tauet inn i Oktober - så ville det ikke overaske meg at Smirck Co kommer til og forsøke og spille på det under valget....

Diclotican

Sorry my bad english, not my native language

[mogster]

40. Hi Diclo

Yeah, who knows what will happen? Whats for sure is that they will play on terror, and has every means at their disposal to do so.
That is proven well during the last four years. I hope senator Obama and his remarkable team has an answer to that.
Or maybe the Am. people has gone immune to smear and fear by now? I for sure have. ;-)

[Diclotican]

55. mogster

To me it looks like US, and specially the "conservative" parts of the america is a fearfully group, who would rather give up their "holy right" to freedom, and liberty than to thing for them selfs.. And mr Bush have been excellent to do exactly that.. Use their fear, their anger, and their ignorance to do what he wish.. Off course under the protect of protecting the american public.. Under mr Bush, just the name of mr Osama is enough to scare the hell out of americans. A country who in the old days was fighting down a fare worse enemy (the german and japan) and still managed to put their act tighter and NOT be so fearfull.... And as President FDR once said it.. The only thing the american publics should fear, is the fear itself. And that is so true. If the american public could just for a second stick their neck out of the sandbag, and even try to understand why someone wanted to attack US, then they might could fix what was wrong in the first place.. But for Jane and Joe doe, it is more important to se who won American Idol, than to try to understand why the world are as it is.. And why some angry, extremist muslims, good helped by Saudi-Arabia can blow up two twin towers in NYC. And in the process kill more than 3000 humans..

I am not that sure that the american public are immune when it come to smear and fear.. Rather it is something mr Bush, and more to the point mr Rove are using again, and again with some success.. and they have most of the american media with them. Specially outlets as Fox news and its like.. The HATE media as I would say it, is something that who have been brewing for ages in US. Under the banner of "freedom of speech" off course.. The fact that they for the most is bigoted, hatefully persons who would never get more than ONE HOUR of media coverage in most EUROPEAN nations is maybe something to think about... If an radio station, was hiring some like Limbaugh as an host, it would take a hour or two, before a breakdown of the switchboard would kill the station.. And the commissions for radio channels would active kill the license to the station all together in a few month's time...
But in the US, they are both living veil, and growing.. Why I have no clue, but I would guess that ignorance of many american have a play into it..

Diclotican

Sorry my bad english, not my native language

[mogster]

56. Yeah, the mainstream will maybe listen to some smear

But they're more likely to listen to fear.
That's my main worry, anyho. But the Dems have a very good candidate, with a lot of Am. people behind him. And it's not just Obama, but a lot of Dem politicians behind him; Dean, Kerry, Kennedy, Gore, Carter, Clark, the list of good people are endless. A lot of grassroot democrats are influencing the decisions made. It's a very cohesive Democrat party in terms of values and politics we see today, and they have the confidence of the majority of the people. The economical situation, Katrina and two wars have opened the eyes of many, I think.
Given a fair and square election process, the Dems would wipe the Repubs out of both Senate and presidency. But it won't be fair and square, we know that.

[Diclotican]

59. mogster

mogster

I can't understand this, that the american public as a large can be co warded to be scared. But this time the old scare tactic maybe are failing.. Even that many would vote for the man who was telling that he would save them from the "evildoers":. And many american are indeed fearfully after the attack of 9/11 2001...

But this time around, I do hope that the most of the america public have understand that everything the republican can do, is to "scare" and nothing more.. After all the scandals that mr Bush have given the US, it should be a long time before any republican can get a Chance of the White House.. Not before the Republican Party have worked out what really was going on when the Bush extremist was running the show.. No Doubt that many old style republican are more than just _angry_ when it come to what mr Bush have managed to destroy...

The election proses would doubtfully be hat fair and square as we hope for, it is not just you in the States who hope that something else would come out of this madness... We miss the "real america" we once admired, and liked to bits. Even that they in many cases was little "weird" compared to european things of doing things.. US was loved, even if we also felled let down sometimes... But I would guess that Rove, and every one else who has something to loose would try to do what they can to steal this election to.. They have gotten away with two president al election in a row.. Why not try for a hat trick....

Diclotican

Sorry my bad english, not my native language

[mogster]

61. Who knows, diclo

It may be more difficult today than in 2004 and in 2000, I think.
But hey - they'll try.

[Diclotican]

63. mogster

mogster

It would be more dificult, becouse more peopole are watching what is happening today, then it was in 2000 and in 2004. At that time we belived US to be a function democratic country... Not an banana-republic where the outcome could be manipulated by the rulers...

But yes, hell they would try their best to sheat when they can. And to intimitate peopole who are not "the right folks".. They would do their best... But this time I would guess they would be taken into custody if they try to manipulate the outcome.. The wold awaits what is happening in the US. And I hope the voting are going as fair as it can come...

[bdamomma]

37. what the hell is wrong with *'ie eye,

sickening POS. He is the biggest coward and such a little man, why is he still in the WH..........nevermind.

[dysfunctional press]

38. jeb will bring him in single-handed in october...

and be unanimously selected as president-dictator in november...
then George the W will lead the first wave of nuke bombing runs on tehran, leading to the u.s. military decimating iran, pakistan, and saudi arabia, accomplishing the conversion of the fundamental islamists into southern baptists and methodists- and establishing the american state of New Texas in the middle east, with a reborn Harken Energy controlling the bulk of the oil contracts.

i figure that lil' georgie has pretty much this same dream several nights a week.

[Rosemary2205]

39. I really do not care if we ever see bin Laden's dead body.

He's much better alive and neutered. Any even half intelligent statesman could have used the international support post 911 to acheive that diplomatically. I am not real clear on whether war with Afganistan was even really necessary - if so, we've certainly managed to screw THAT up.


typo

[kentuck]

42. He must already have an idea where he is at?

Perhaps the bombing in Pakistan the other day had something to do with it?

[SirDaddybear]

43. Saving his legacy?

Drag the dead Osama from some entombment and prance...is that gonna save his legacy as the worst disaster ever to hit the WH?
Not a chance!

[Indenturedebtor]

44. Translation - "I'll get Bin Laden to drink with me yet!

He's been hangin at the ranch for years, and the dude still won't pop suds with me."

[L. Coyote]

45. In other words, they have had him all along!! ???

[mogster]

47. Er.. that would be a too quick assumption

But you never know. OBL has been free for nearly seven years after 911, and I find it hard to believe he's not dead. At the same time, the use of terror as a political means isn't limited to the real terrorists 'work' anymore, but are a part of the Repub machine for society control. It's a disgusting way of doing politics, and it is going on in Europe too. They take advantage of the short memory of the public when it comes to terror-related issues; a huge media blowout scares the hell out of people, but when two months have passed, it turns out to be nothing. Or almost nothing--angry thoughts inside a few simple people's heads are blown highly out of proportion, and they're built to be the next big thing in terrorism. But it won't stand up in court.

[gkhouston]

46. Nope, you're leaving in January, 2009. Nice try, George. n/t

[Scout]

48. Osama's haning out in the Pig Ranch, making videos, waiting for when W

needs him...

[Dogtown]

50. Maybe

he means he won't leave the WH, until "I catch Bin Laden", ie, when "hell freezes over". He's just trying to have a colloquialism attributed to him. His last chance at some sort of "legacy".


MISERABLE FAILURE!

[Skidmore]

51. Remember that tape from bin Laden saying he would bankrupt this nation?

There is an ad waiting to be made connecting the economy to the "War on Terra" that the Bush-McCain contingent has foisted on us and which makes the point that they have been facilitating bin Laden in the destruction of America.

[Cleita]

52. Ha, ha. They are going to thaw out the coffin they've been keeping him

in sometime between the election and before Bush leaves office. Osama won't be any use to him anymore for scaring security types to keeping up a war if Obama wins. If McCain wins, he'll probably stay on ice for Johnny to do the same.

[NoGOPZone]

53. Maybe Bush doesn't plan on ever leaving the White House

I wouldn't put it past this Admin.

[librechik]

62. oops--I knew he had him on dry ice in an anonymous warehous run by a CIA front

Brace yourselves!

[Canuckistanian]

64. "You'll see, just you wait"

"That Osama is TOAST, you hear me? Boy are his days numbered. He should be shakin' in his boots. Yessir, SHAKIN'. I'm on his trail... gonna smoke 'im out. You'll see. I'm gonna git 'im, that's for sure. Osama, get ready, here I come. That's right, GEORGIE BOY right here, the ol' Commander-in-Chief, the Decider, is AFTER YOU! Just you wait. Dead or alive, that what I said and that's what I meant. Just wait. I'm coming, you evildoer. You cain't hide, I know where you are. I'm on my way. Right now. This second. Why, even soone......"

Then the microphone went dead.
