I mean geez, if he knows how to get Osama bin Laden then why not go out there and get him now. Suspend your campaign again and go out there and get the guy. Wouldn't it be a big boost to your election if you could capture him BEFORE the election.

I think that's bullshit using bin Laden as a reason to vote for McCain. It's like telling the voters if they vote for McCain they then will get a lollipop. Either give me the damn lollipop now or STFU!

by the way, I don't really know how to end the war with honor, either. April Fool!

Amazing, that these people have the nerve to tell uch bad lies.

Did you hear McTroll say that Russia was run out of Afghanistan
by the freedom fighters. This was one of his warm ups for how to get bin Laden.

God, what an idiot.

4. Bin Ladin
All they have to do is talk to Christiane Amonpour. She knows where he is and said it is a villa, not a cave.

5. Exactly. If you know how to get OBL, why have you hidden your secret
from your own President? Do you not support our troops?

How cheap can he get? Blackmailing us with his secret to capturing the elusive OBL.

7. It reminds me of the West Wing and the "secret plan to fight inflation" episode
McCain has a "secret plan to catch Bin Laden."

8. Republicans need bin Laden, always have, don't want him dead - he's the boogieman, keeps the fear
Edited on Tue Oct-07-08 11:57 PM by LaPera
going for the republicans, they use bin Laden in every election....he gets the republicans votes and helps them keep the fear mongering going.

Republicans never wanted to get Osama just ask special forces - Delta- Osama bin Laden is and has been much too valuable to the republicans and BushCo to kill him.

I recall the idiot Bill O'Reilly holding up a photograph of bin Laden to the camera a couple of days after 9-11 telling his audience "your looking at a dead man" and how Bush is going to kill bin Laden....

Right Bill, you asshole liar....bin Laden has been the best friend to Bush & the republicans....Do republicans kill their friends....sure, just ask Saddam Hussein, (well you can't) but republicans do kill their "friends" when they are done using them!!!

13. McCain has same game plan for getting OBL that Bush&Co. had for finding WMD
Bush & Co. stated they *KNEW* where the WMD in Iraq were, but wouldn't tell the UN Weapons Inspectors (I hate that name, these UN people DESTROYED banned weapons) who were already in Iraq.

Very similar to McCain saying he *KNOWS* how to kill or capture Bin Laden, but for the last 7 years, he hasn't walked his son-of-an-Admiral's ass into the Pentagon and shared the plan with Rummy or Gates or Admiral Fallon.
