Let Me See If I've Got This Straight...(Osama/Bush)
So Osama comes out of the woodwork to let us all know that the surge is working just in time for Bush to chuck another 46 billion at the military establishment?

That's their most impressive teamwork since Osama endorsed Kerry.

1. I have always believed...
That the Bush family made their papers secret because they didn't want us to find out that Osama was on their Christmas card list. Yes, I know he's Muslim, but when has religious or any other kind of sensitivity been a factor for a Bush?

2. Without getting too ridiculous...
...between James R. Bath and the extent to which we know bin Laden was involved in the CIA during the Russian-Afghan war, it really shouldn't be surprising that Bush and bin Laden's agendas align so often.

What is surprising is that people still seriously believe there is any opposition between the two. This guy is straight out of Orwell.

3. I have always thought that Bush's "Osama" was a paid actor.
Think about it - he appears every time Bush wants money. Every fucking time. Without fail.

If Mel Gibson can find actors who speak languages that haven't been spoken in thousands of years, Bush can find an actor who speaks Arabic. AND looks just convincingly enough like Osama to fool the public.

4. I've been convinced that he lives on a soundstage in West Virginia for years now.
Under a mountain.

"Time to stir the pot again, 'Osama.' And Action."

6. A common mistake...
...though generally the people making it have R's next to their names, it seems. :)
