Ok, what's the 2 punch to follow the OBL tape? Is there one?
Cuz if the tape isn't intended as a prelude to something else, then it's point is lost on me. I'm beginning to agree with the folks who believe it's been provided simply as a diversion from other news. Another national chain jerking.
given the fact that something like a tape, a beheading, or a terror alert pops up to dominate the news every time Bush is in hot water, my gut says no.
12. Keep in mind - Republicans will claim this is good for Bush.
And they will use it to "rally the troops", but I cannot see this being a positive in the minds of anyone who isn't already adamantly pro-Bush.
The simple fact that bin Laden is able to make a tape like this in the first place shows what a disaster Bush's "war on terror" has been. He hasn't caught the one guy that he should have, and he's started a $225 billion war to distract us from noticing.
