Using World Net Daily as their source. Somehow, I had thought that WND was beneath even Fox, but apparently I gave them too much credit.

4. And how exactly does this work?
How are the terrorists actually talking WITH Americans other than Faux relaying their messages to us? AND, the terrorists argument is what? Vote DEM and you support our work?

How can Faux News viewers believe that? It makes absolutely no sense whatsoever.

6. It sounds bad, the way faux plays it, but it makes sense
Edited on Sat Nov-04-06 09:18 AM by Alacrat
The insurgents want us out of Iraq, We want us out of Iraq, the repugs want us to stay. Of course they(insurgents) would rather have the party who wants us out of Iraq, in power. Now the way faux is presenting it is a slight toward Democrats, and if this were truly the way the insurgent leaders said it, it was meant to embolden repugs, which is what they want. This to me is faux spinning, for repug gain, something they and the insurgents want.

8. Emboldening Publicans is the only way to look at it
as DEMs don't watch that trash. Very similar to the OBL video released right before the 04 elections that fired up the 'PUblican base so well.

Look at it this way. Terrorists are having a grand time right now - if the USA pulls out of Iraq and starts diplomatic maneuvering, the terrorists lose all those new recruits, all that money coming into their coffers. They lose the high ground and they lose their power.

Of course the terrorists want the 'Publicans in power as then THEY get to keep their power base.

10. But al qaeda would want us to stay in Iraq
It serves their cause, ups recruitment and aligns the whole world against us. The bushies are nothing but good news for them. They attacked us because (in part) of US bases in Saudia Arabia, Bush withdraws from Saudia Arabia and invades a country whose leader is more of a thorn in qaeda's side than anything else.

If al qaeda's the enemy, then Fox's conclusion is illogical.

5. So are the soldiers terrorists, because it seems they want the
Dems voted in, too. That editorial (get rid of Rummy) coming out tomorrow proves it.

7. They are idiots!
Any self respecting terrorist would realize they are in bad odor and any endorsement by them would be the stamp of death to a political career.
Never let it be said that a nutter should use logic.

9. Ah so we are fully into the 'just making shit up' phase.
I'll start to get worried when they start broadcasting cryptic messages like 'chop down the tall trees'.

11. Is it just me, or is this starting to sound increasingly hollow?
"You disagree with me, you're a terrorist." That's pre-school logic.

16. Here is the World Nut Daily article Faux News is 'sourcing.'
http://www.worldnetdaily.com/news/article.asp?ARTICLE_ID=52747

Just a few questions concerning this exquisite piece of "journalism." Exactly who interviewed all of these supposed terrorist leaders? How did they confirm that these individuals were in fact terrorist leaders? In what manner did they interview these terrorist leaders? Why didn't they attempt to kill these terrorist leaders or capture them instead of interviewing then? Why did they offer their website as a platform for supposedly known terrorist leaders to spread their hatred? Why didn't they at least let the Bush administration and our military know about these terrorists' whereabouts so they could be captured or killed?

Is World Nut Daily protecting these terrorist leaders or is the Bush administration protecting them?

17. Um, they quoted Palestinians.
What do they have to do with Iraq? Not much.

Pretty flimsy story if you ask me and irresponsible to give terrorists a soapbox for partisan purposes.

19. hey, with only 2 1/2 days left
Edited on Sat Nov-04-06 03:45 PM by cobaindrain
This is about what I'd expect from FOX News, all hands on deck, time to save our GOP asses. Expect even more ridiculous things in the coming hours.

Sure was good of FOX to tell the viewers that World Net Daily is a far right smear website, way to exercise journalist integrity boys.

20. Those terrorists are so wily
If they just encourage Americans to vote for Dems, millions of Americans will be sure to do what they say. Sheesh! The wingnuts have been talking to themselves for so long, they now believe their own meth-and-brimstone fantasies.

21. a couple more years and Fox will have their own masked jihadi commentator
Edited on Sat Nov-04-06 05:23 PM by SlavesandBulldozers
i can see it now:

Hannity and Abdul

Hannity: Now ww. .ww. wait a second there Abdul did you just say that Osama bin Laden has been trying to get registered as a Democrat in Oregon in order to sway elections?

Abdul: THat is correct, Sean. God willing, we will have these Democrats elected, because as you know we terrorists think that progressive taxation, a safety net for the poor, minority rights and civil liberties are right up there with the downfall of the Great Sa. . .

Hannity: But wwww. .w .ww.w.

Abdul: (inaudible) if I can jus.. . .

Hannity: I'm sorry but I have to draw the line on this, that's just outrageous. Abdul I've had it with you and your democratic ilk.

Abdul: It's a free country Sean, we should have free suicide belts and free abortions as well. . . which as we know is central to Hillary's platform

Hannity: Unbelievable, this is what the Democratic party has come to. . .Well, that does it for this evening's show. We report. You decide.
(cross-talk)
