OBL's remarks about "The Pet Goat" (sorry if dupe)

Bin Laden suggested Bush was slow to react to the Sept. 11 attacks, giving the hijackers more time than they expected. At the time of the attacks, the president was listening to schoolchildren in Florida reading a book.

"It never occurred to us that the commander in chief of the American armed forces would leave 50,000 of his citizens in the two towers to face these horrors alone," he said, referring to the number of people who worked at the World Trade Center.

"It appeared to him (Bush) that a little girl's talk about her goat and its butting was more important than the planes and their butting of the skyscrapers. That gave us three times the required time to carry out the operations, thank God," he said.

3. OBL slapped * upside the head with "My Pet Goat"
and some in the corporate media are calling it a 'wash'.

This is about as embarrassed as I have ever been of my sorry weak-ass Preznit.
