Wild speculation? Or October Surprise? (do they already have Osama?) [View All]

Facts:
Earlier this week, Bush announced the transfer of a dozen "high value" prisoners to Gitmo from the secret prisons (that don't exist).

We found out that one of these "high value" prisoners that was allegedly captured last week was actually captured in June and they just told us about him last week.

Suddenly, after ignoring him for 3 years, Bush starts talking about and quoting from bin Laden, and saying what a threat he still is and how we're still going to catch him.


Speculation:
They already have bin Laden, he's one of the 12 they just moved to Gitmo, and they're going to bring him out and parade him around either on Monday 9/11, or just in time for the election.

Then we'll all get to watch little Georgie strut around, try to act like a tough guy, and say "see, we got 'im." Then Rush the junkie, Falafel Bill, Ann the man, Hannity-job, and all the rest will spend the next month wetting themselves with glee and telling us how swell it is that we have such a powerful leader who, with an unlimited budget and the world's most powerful military, only took 5 short years to track down the tallest, most famous, most recognizable Arab in the world (who also happens to be dragging around a dialysis machine - which means he's near electricity, water, etc).

To which I say "Hey George, it's about freaking time."

Granted, I hope that he's caught. I've been hoping that for 5 years. But I will find it utterly reprehensible and unconscionable if they decide to use his (5 year too late) capture for political purposes. I fully expect that they will.

(Of course, this is all just wild speculation. Based on the competence of this administration, they don't have bin Laden, just a dozen more of his "number 2"s. I'm just saying it's possible.)
