Dems Cast Doubt on Upcoming Report from Bin Laden

by Scott Ott · 32 Comments

(2007-09-07) — Democrats in Congress today tried to get out ahead of the release of a new report on the so-called “war on terror” by casting doubts on the reliability of the data and its interpretation by al Qaeda leader Usama Bin Laden.

“Believing what bin Laden says about this conflict is like trusting Gen. David Petraeus or George Bush,” said Sen. Chuck Schumer, D-NY, “They’re all in cahoots. These war-mongering neocons have an agenda and they bend the facts to suit their blood-thirsty purposes.”

Sen. Schumer said Mr. bin Laden is likely to “reinforce the Bush administration’s foregone conclusions through his normal saber rattling, but everyone knows that, for the United States military in Iraq, the only way forward is backward.”

An anonymous spokesman for Mr. bin Laden said his much anticipated video report, set for a September 11 release, will call for “maintaining jihadi force levels in Iraq until the elected government institutes political reforms that bring unity to a nation torn by civil war.”

“The government of the people, by the people and for the people,” Mr. bin Laden will reportedly say, “must give way to one nation under Allah, indivisible, without liberty — injustice for all. To paraphrase President Bush: As the Iraqi government stands down, al Qaeda will stand up.”

    Do you realize that Chuck Schumer with a beard and turban would greatly resemble bin Laden?

    Incredible! He has ‘bin hiden’ in America all this time.

    “the only way forward is backward.”

    Yep, that certainly sounds like “Schmuckie Schumer”.

    Fabulous Photos!!! You all are amazing!

    So Schumer is done posing at the gas pump, finished waiting and but willing to drum up the ill will of the people. And now they huddle, planning and scheming to continue to undermine the War on Terror, this time by quietly disqualifying our Generals as nothing more than a mouthpiece for Bush. Waiting until the General speaks before they really let it rip. They will not accept anything but their talking points. No matter what. Such dedication.

    The media can never admit defeat! When reporting on Mike Nifong, those that think he was doing his job are reported like this: A small group of supporters . And those that think he should be held accountable for his actions are reported like this:A handful of hecklers.

    The General doesn’t stand a chance in fair reporting!

  • 9 JamesonLewis3rd // Sep 7, 2007 at 11:41 am

    Speaking of Petraeus, here’s the letter (PDF) he sent today to the men and women under his command in Iraq (via Captain Ed).

  • 10 Darthmeister // Sep 7, 2007 at 12:03 pm

    Democrats: “President Bush and General David Petreaus are lying scumbags … but bin Laden is someone we must listen to.”

    CHUCKIE SHUMER’S CONCISE HISTORY OF AMERICAN CONFLICTS: (partial hat tip to Rush Limbaugh)

    Iraq War: Whatever progress Americans are witnessing in Iraq, which coincidentally began shortly after BusHitler’s immoral and illegal “surge”, is a result of peace-loving Sunni warlords. The American military have only been observers and are in fact the real problem in Iraq.

    Desert Storm: It was the Arab troops who fought with the U.S. Military who were the real warriors who kicked Saddam out of Kuwait.

    Korean War: Peace loving Chi-Coms grew weary of the war and its bloodletting and it was only after they offered the olive branch of peace that the warmongering U.S. military forces on the Korean Peninsula stood down. It was subsequently determined the presence of American troops is what agitated the Communist movement in Korea who only wanted to live in peace with Capitalists.

    World War II: The Soviets were actually the ones who won the war in the European Theater. Proof of the Soviet military prowess was further demonstrated when after declaring war against Japan, the very next day Japan surrendered to American troops in fear of the Soviet’s military might.

    World War I: The war was already won by British blood before American forces even stepped foot in Europe. The American soldiers were called “doughboys” because they were considered soft and cowardly by both German and British military experts. After the war one million European women were raped by American troops and a vast right-wing conspiracy was able to cover-up these atrocities even to this day. The fact this information hasn’t come to light until now proves just how effective this right-wing conspiracy was.

    Civil War: The war only ended because the warmongering President Lincoln was able to bribe Confederal General Robert E. Lee with a promise of living out the rest of his years a free man. But the people who actually won the war were the slaves themselves who worked voodoo magic before each major engagement between the Union and the Confederates starting with the Union victories at Vicksburg and Gettysburg on the same day in July, 1863

    War of 1812: The British troops were tired after the long trip across the Atlantic Ocean and not wanting to get bogged down in another unpopular quagmire decided they may as well go home after a couple of years of burning down Washington D.C. and terrorizing Americans.

    The Revolutionary War: It wasn’t General George Washington and the American minutemen who won the war, but rather the French. The British soldiers began rebelling against their officers saying they will no longer fight against smelly, over-sexed Frenchmen who reeked of elderberry. So General Cornwallis made a show of surrendering to Washington, the British troops hopped on their ships and went back to merry ol’ England in hopes of growing old in peace and telling war stories to their grandchildren, but … (see War of 1812)

    What we really need is a Democrat victory in 2008.

    Then, by 2010, we survivors can sweep up the corpses and get on with re-establishing Democracy in America.

  • 12 Ms RightWing, Ink // Sep 7, 2007 at 12:22 pm

    Maggie-I just lost a whole huge post targeted to you. There is something I hit on my keyboard from time to time and poof, it is gone.

    I shall sit down after my aide leaves and rethink my ideas

    You know, a generation ago if an enemy of the United States tried to look younger and more virile by coloring his hair/beard, having a facelift, wearing a new toupee or using a combover, the media and the rest of America would be laughing themselves silly. Instead the lamestream media speaks almost in hush, reverent tones about how much younger and vigorous a murdering terrorist scumbag looks! What a bunch of tools.

    BTW, Libby Gone, very funny stuff.

    “The government of the people, by the people and for the people,” Mr. bin Laden will reportedly say, “must give way to one nation under Allah, indivisible, without liberty — injustice for all. …”

    Hawkeye re:3

    Great pictures! Thanks for sharing. You all look like folks I’d love to share some time with.

    OLA: Great shirts! And from all I hear tell the rest of us missed out on some first rate chow.

    Ms RW re:5
    I ain’t as good lookin’ as I used to be, but I suppose I’m better lookin’ now than I’m gonna be. At least until I get to heaven, where we’ll all be like God meant for us to be. God bless you. You’re still beautiful where it truly counts. You make us smile and bring out the best in the rest of us. You’ll always be a real toots in our eyes.

  • 18 debass // Sep 7, 2007 at 1:54 pm

    At least Bin Laden got the Dhimmicrat talking points right. I wonder how much he contributes to Moveon.org? I’ve heard that goat shit will turn your beard black.

  • 19 debass // Sep 7, 2007 at 1:55 pm

    I forgot to add that I enjoyed the pictures. Wish I could attend but it’s a ways from northern CA.

  • 20 conserve-a-tips // Sep 7, 2007 at 4:04 pm

    Thank you so much for the pictures. I enjoyed them so much and it just made me want to come next year even more.

    Bin Laden reminds me of Tokyo Rose…”Wouldn’t you like to just go home, boys? Just lay down your guns and let us take care of you. We will take care of you, you know.”

    And the best way to end the fighting is to end Democracy? Like his system of government is working??? Yeah, I wanna be like a peasant in Afghanistan, living in a cave. Right. The Democrats had better wake up. They are aiding and abetting this creepy, crawly caliph kook. And like Hitler was to the Jews, Benny is going to take the Democrats down first.

    Great pictures.

    ON topic, Schumer has too many letters in his name; take out the “h”, “e” and “r” for more accuracy: Scum

  • 22 Hawkeye // Sep 7, 2007 at 7:55 pm

    Ms RW #5,
    After I get done with my Photoshop magic, you’ll look just like Britney Spears… that is, if you WANT to look like Britney.

    (:D) Best regards…

    debass #19,
    Maybe you need to start a West-Coast chapter and have an event out there. Then, when these things get big enough, we can have a national convention!

    (:D) Best regards…

    Camo #21,
    I had plenty of great subjects to photograph (that includes you, by the way).

    (:D) Best regards…

  • 28 debass // Sep 7, 2007 at 11:30 pm

    Hawkeye,

    That sounds like a great idea. I don’t know how many left coasters there are out there.

  • 29 gafisher // Sep 8, 2007 at 11:24 am

    Darth #14: Maybe UBL spent the last few years in the loving hands of the Cuban health care system while shmoozing with Michael Moore. That would explain his prolonged absense, his mastery of the moonbat Talking Points, and (if Moore and the left are to be believed) his miraculously improved health.

    Was bin Laden educated in the US Public Schools? His Vietnam Rant (copied below) has Kennedy being assassinated for opposing Rumsfeld — half a decade before Rumsfeld. In other words, the same old inversion/revision of history by which the lefties reverse JFK’s and Nixon’s actual roles regarding Vietnam.

    “In the Vietnam War, the leaders of the White House claimed at the time that it was a necessary and crucial war, and during it, Rumsfeld and his aides murdered two million villagers. And when Kennedy took over the presidency and deviated from the general line of policy drawn up for the White House and wanted to stop this unjust war, that angered the owners of the major corporations who were benefiting from its continuation.” “And so Kennedy was killed, and al-Qaida wasn’t present at that time, but rather, those corporations were the primary beneficiary from his killing.”
    ……………………………………………….Usama bin Laden

    (Rumsfeld served on the Nixon Cabinet from 1969-1970.
    JFK was assassinated in 1963.)
