Did anyone else see that BS piece Natl Geog. did last night on
Ben Laden? "Final Report".

That was the biggest piece of govt propaganda I've ever seen in my life. I couldn't sleep.

The last line of the show said something like, The search that started 10 yrs ago continues. They tried to blame Ben Laden's actions on Clinton letting him get away. I couldn't believe it. No mention of "Ben LAden determined to attack US." No mention of the Clinton administration trying to warn the Shrub cronies. NOTHING! They called it "Final Report" as if they had the last word on this shit. Every piece of it left out major important issues, such as the question as to why we let his family leave after 9/11. How he was a CIA darling back during the Afghan war with Russia. How the administration says they aren't worried about him yet we're killing thousands in Iraq. We should let NAt. Geog. know what we think of this bullshit!

1. National Geographic Channel has as much credibility as
the Discovery Channel anymore. None of them have anything to do with reality. It's war war war and propaganda all the time.

4. Especially when they talk about global warming. No credibility at all.

2. So, lets see, search started 10 years ago, 1996
Wouldn't that mean that Clinton was ahead of the game? If he was hunting Osama in 96?

And why didn't we get him? Because Congressional Republicans said that terror was a "phony issue" and a distraction.

So there were embassy bombings in 98, and the USS Cole in 2000. So Clinton couldn't catch Osama after those two attacks in other countries. He had, what, two years?


Bush has had five, after the largest terrorist attack on US soil in history.

What's his excuse?
