I don't. Here's what I hear: "people demand that their government protect them effectively, consistently, and with as much violence as necessary"

Not only is there a wish for Osama Bin Laden to target America, there is also hope for government to take up violence to protect America. War mongering suddenly sounds mild. I don't see anything you do, but treason towards personal political fulfillment.

Wrong. Osama couldn't ask for a better ally than the neo-cons that have been dividing and eating this country from inside.

Neocons? You mean the ones that the liberals accuse of falsifying events to start a war against the taliban, which bin Laden represents?

Osama did not have to ask for a better allie...the liberals elected one and keep shouting that the can do no wrong.

Absolutely correct. Bin Laden is no doubt sitting back in satisfaction, watching the Republican party tear this country apart. The right-wing faction in Congress and elsewhere have been attacking Barack Obama since way before the election. And since he was elected--democratically (which doesn't seem to matter to the right wing)--they have been trying their best to make sure that he fails. They are treasonous in the extreme--and giving great satisfaction to Osama Bin Laden.

Bin Laden doesn't need to attack America because we are still reeling from the economic terrorist attack from our own rich and powerful.

A Glimmer of Hope: Osama Bin Laden, The Savior

I guess the loons failed to mention that didn't work in 2001...

I don't think even Glenn Beck took that idiot seriously.

Another coup for Faux and Media Matters.

Michael Scheuer is a great American person. A true individual, non-political and a person of truth.

Nice attempt to redirect what was said. Nowhere did I mention Iraq, you did. Once again, an example of liberals trying to only recognize what they want to say as truth. Regardless of the truth of the matter.

It does seem to me they are eerily similar.
Far right wing Religious kooks defending their land at any cost, trying to shape people's visions so they are the same as theirs, shout useless inflamatory rhetoric to show they are devoted, keep adding to this list I know there is more...
