Conyers hearings were why the tape was released. |
|
Pure and simple. This morning Brian Lamb asked a caller how the govt. could have released the tape when it came for Al-Jazeera. Something to point out in regard to this argument. Our govt made it know that they targeted the Al-Jazeera offices to be blown to kingdome come a short while ago. Perhaps this is why a tape was made and Al-Jazeera was threated with destruction if they did not make it public for our criminal administration.

3. I heard a rumor that this tape was not new |
|
But a re-edit of an older tape. Has anyone else heard this? Is there any evidence that this is recent?
And I wonder why Osama is giving us the heads up, when it would seem that if he wanted his attack to be successful, he should keep it on the down-low, knowing that the Amazing Bush was on the case.

4. Then It Kinda Backfired |
|
I don't see the tape as a good thing for Bush... a distraction from other scandals... maybe. But it just highlights the guy's incompetence and criminal negligence. And it also exposes Bush's failure in transforming the Middle East.

7. Thats what a normal person would conclude. |
|
But the zombie sheep, that are the Bush supporters, will see this as a sign of strength, and a need to "stand by your man".
They'll support Bush no matter what.

this ploy bypasses thought. That is how the bush admin works, their entire methodology in a nutshell (pun intended).
Bypass reason, play straight to fear.
