Osama Wants You!

Just in case you missed it, Osama really doesn’t want you to vote for President Bush. As originally released, it appeared that bin Laden’s statement was simply a generic commentary about the election, not siding with either Bush or Kerry. It turns out the full text of Osama’s statement is, in fact, a warning to vote against Bush. In fact, he implies that any state that doesn’t go for Bush will be "secured" Here’s the relevent quote from Osama’s screed:
[K]now that: “It is better to return to the truth than persist in error.” And that the wise man doesn’t squander his security, wealth and children for the sake of the liar in the White House. In conclusion, I tell you in truth, that your security is not in the hands of Kerry, nor Bush, nor al-Qaida. No. Your security is in your own hands. And every state that doesn’t play with our security has automatically guaranteed its own security.
How telling is that? It appears that Bush really does have them "running scared." Too bad most folks probably won’t hear this until after they have voted.
