2. Wolfie's crying wolf...again.
Anyway, Cheney doesn't elicit much sympathy as evidenced by his 9% approval rating.

I'm just sayin'...

10. Is OBL trying to boost Darth's Approval Rating?
By making Darth a target OBL may be trying to bring about a sympathy surge for Darth.

9. If there's a shred of truth to this it would be that OBL is trying
To muster sympathy for his old friend. No faster way to do that then to create an erroneous plot to kill him by the evil OBL himself.

Funny that they'd be playing the sympathy card for Cheney though.

11. So OBL, in an undisclosed location, is somehow going to find and kill
Cheney, also in an undisclosed location. These two are just going to have to step out of their caves and have a duel on Pennsylvania Avenue. I'll watch.

16. First, it was a last minute hospital visit on the day of his impeachment motion.
:eyes: And after that little ploy went over like a lead balloon, he's now the primary target of OBL. :eyes::eyes:

17. So does this mean Cheney is in hospice, and they will stir up a war
based on an alleged, boogie-man plot by OBL to explain Cheney's disappearance?

19. And Wolfie knows this how?
by unnamed sources? I mean really, Wolfie would know about classified intelligence? Now what would be their reasons for bringing up the ol' terra tactic?

Does Wolfie have an inside pipeline to Osama and the Taliban? Geeez, they have nothing left.

30. Wolfie had a revelation ... if Bush can talk to God, well ...
Seriously folks, this is ridiculous. It's a ploy to give Darth some sympathy. The source is most likely the Rove White House.

20. Oh yeah. Let's plot to kill one of the most unpopular
people in America.

Actually, if OBL is looking to improve his image, it just might work . . .

That's sarcasm, Agent Mike! Honest!

25. That isn't exactly correct. The 'attack' happened a while ago.
Edited on Wed Apr-25-07 04:18 PM by americanstranger
From CNN's site:

A Taliban military commander says Osama bin Laden helped plan the deadly suicide car bombing outside Bagram Air Base targeting a "very important American official," apparently referring to Vice President Dick Cheney.

<...>

The vice president was more than a half mile away from the site of the February attack in Afghanistan, which Afghan police said killed more than 15 people and wounded 20.

http://www.cnn.com/2007/WORLD/meast/04/25/afghanistan.dadullah/index.html

----

Past tense. The 'attack' in question happened 2 months ago.

34. Yeah, they finally managed to explain it a little more. I had to replay the TIVO
to see the rest (had to run a quick errand)

I do recall that other story but forgot the details.

Now that'd be an attention grabber. Better yet, issuing an Amber Alert for Dick Cheney!
