Bush insists Bin Laden won’t influence US election
Bush insists Bin Laden won’t influence US election

Agence France-Presse

WASHINGTON, Washington, United States of America -- US President George W. Bush late Sunday dismissed the notion terror mastermind Osama bin Laden could seriously influence the outcome of the US presidential election and renewed his promise to eventually "get" the Al-Qaeda leader.
"First, he is not going to intimidate or decide this election," Bush told NBC News in an interview two day before Tuesday's vote.

In his message broadcast by Al-Jazeera television on Friday, bin Laden warned of a possible repeat of the September 11, 2001, terrorist attacks and said the election would have no bearing on Al-Qaeda operations, whether Bush or Democratic challenger John Kerry won it.

Bin Laden appeared confident and healthy as he urged Americans to refrain from hurting Muslim interests.

Bush said the United States was systematically destroying the Al-Qaeda network all around the world, starting with Afghanistan.

"And we'll eventually get Osama bin Laden," he promised. "In the meantime, we are destroying -- slowly but surely, systematically him."

2. Weren't His Minions Saying The Opposite 2 Months Ago?
When the thing in Spain happened, they tried to use that to get people to buck up and "not be intimidated". Then, Cheney and the rest of the criminal crowd said they were trying to influence the elections.

Now, Li'l Georgie says they won't influence the elections.

No wonder these guys are so awful. They can't even be wrong about the same things at the same time.

6. ACCORDING TO BOIL ON THE ASS BOY
Edited on Tue Nov-02-04 04:39 PM by saigon68
a vote for Kerry is a vote for Bin Ladin. He's very angry, my friend called and said he was beside himself yesterday and today.

Good he is a worthless bag of fart.

9. Really? He's steamed ALREADY? Very interesting.
Yesterday or so, some DU'ers were discussing the fact some photos taken of him in the last day showed he was looking really down!

He'll just have to remember the times he walked like a king among us!

7. TOO LATE. You have almost four years and you did NOTHING!
Bin Laden didn't influence my vote but your incompetent presidential skill did.

10. '..* renewed his promise to eventually "get" the Al-Qaeda leader.'
He still does not understand him. Lets try again. Once a little
goat spent lotsa public money, billions and billions until the
whole country was bankrupt. Then he realized that he was tricked
in to spending the country in to bankruptcy, by someone who he
does not "get", but may eventually.

Bush you fucking dick. While you're fucking your pet goat, the
treasury is empty, the army is in a losing war, and millions of
americans are denied economic justice.

Grrrrr.... what he doesn't "get", we all pay for....
