The Democratic Underground analyzes the Bin Laden tape
2007-09-08
The full range of the loyal opposition's thought process is on display:
I'm going to say this once, the bin Laden tape is a fake.....
Read the content, look at the words and study the syntax. This appears to be the comments of someone who reads the NY Times and other western literature, not a radical fundamentalist.
You mean there's a difference in their worldviews?
I basically agree with whomever is speaking on the tape
Capital does control events throughout the world and Democrats are powerless to change that..
Like I said, . . . It doesn't take long for the paranoia to come out:
Yup, I think that's it

Just associate OBL with the exact messages that the progressive community uses.

Fits right in with the RW "liberals are with the terrorists" theme.

Same here. I thought so the other times too.

Hey, everbody, the 'mericans are scared. Let's dig out an old tape of Osama, dress it up a bit, blame the Democrats for the fix we're in and by golly it's the anniversary of 9-11.

If that's OBL, I'll kiss your ass in front of the White House
Starting with the 04 tape and now this one, OBL never talked about current events in his tapes, nor did he address American political parties. This tape is a RNC/WH production.

I would venture a guess...that this is an early step in a larger 'thug plan that's just ramping up.

Bushies pretending to be Bin Laden pretending to be a Liberal Democrat
I am surprised it doesn't sound weirder and MORE disjointed considering what it is.

Hell yes, the tape is a fake, but what percentage of Imperial Subjects of Amerika will even bother to notice Bin Laden's suddenly messed up eye, and his dyed beard?

1%? 5%? 10%? Anybody gullible enough to think more than 10% sure hasn't done a lot of talking to random Imperial Subjects of Amerika, as I have these past seven years.

And Bushler's Propaganda wins again.

Like a Jew in 1937 Germany (which all of us DUers are, metaphorically-speaking) it is quite demoralizing the way these lying murdering Bushies suceed again and again and AGAIN.
But, just as a blind squirrel finds a nut or two now and then, the DU nuts occasionally stumble across the truth, even though they're often coming at it from the wrong direction:
We know that brown people can't be deucated and literate don't we? Despite that fact that he is college educated and a savvy leaser, we know he is completely unable to understand his enemy and tailor a message for them.
I have no idea if the video is real or not but your theory disturbing for a progressive board.

Not a fake.

It's simply our bad luck that Osama is clearly more intelligent and more articulate than the knuckledragger that cuts farts in the Oval Office these days.

Why would the Nazis take the huge risk of getting caught at producing such a video? Especially when every time Osama shows his face the American public is potentially reminded of Bush's utter failure to avenge 9/11.
As in any other ideologically rigid, conformist subcultures, the rebels, the ones who dare to be different and march to the beat of their own drum, must be smacked back into line:
the tape didn't help Kerry....even though by this logic, it should have
Every time been forgotten is trotted out on tape, it brings back the security issue into people's focus. it reminds people of 9/11. when people fear, they tend to support their leaders. it is psychologically difficult to be fearful and believe their leaders are incompetent boobs.

#3  Just associate OBL with the exact messages that the progressive community uses.

Ahhh, a glimmer of understanding that OBL and the 'progressive' community have exactly the same talking points. Maybe there is hope!

#2  Paranoia strikes deep,
Into your heart it will creep.
It starts when you're always afraid:
Step outta line, the Man comes
And takes you awayexposes your stupidity.

You've got to stop, Kos Kids,
What's that sound?
Everybody look what's goin' down ...

#1  too funny! I have to agree with them that the tape seem to be a fake. But if, it is as they believe that the Republicans and White House produced it, then they will have to deal with the fact that it is just too funny to see Bin Laden (fake or no) spewing their own incoherent stupidity.
