“Idiot. After air travel resumed, the Saudi government suggested several people leave the US and offered travel to all Saudis that wanted to leave.”

Well done. An ad hominem attack and you totally avoided the issue of the close ties between the bin Ladens and the President’s family. You should be a politician. Maybe you are?

“Apparently 9/11 was too long ago for you to remember the hysteria and fear that pervaded America.”

Not really and to remind myself, all I have to do is to read your posts and many of the other posts on this blog each and every day, year in and year out – likely decade in and decade out in the time to come.

I suppose, eventually you might even get up to centuries in and centuries out. It’s your whole world. It’s more than the terrorists could possibly have imagined prior to 9/11. Way to go!

“The bin Ladens had been interviewed by the FBI before they left. And not all of Osama’s relatives left the US either.”

Just the accessories before and after the fact had a good reason to leave the country. Why would any of the other bin Ladens leave? They had the President and the entire military of the U.S.A. to protect them from harm.

p.s. Sorry about the “Croaker” signature earlier. It was a mouse click error.

Who knows what the Bushes promised the bin Ladens before they let them fly home – while everyone else was grounded after 9/11?

Get off your Hemorrhoids and KNOW both sides of this story. …

I just love your writing style sometimes.

“I don’t think he’d be so unwise as to give China the finger, and he certainly wouldn’t do it with utter impunity…. China would have his ass faster than you can say “Falun Gong”

That’s very likely true.

The point is, I don’t think the people who run China are bosom buddies with Osama’s entire family – like the Bush family.

Who knows what the Bushes promised the bin Ladens before they let them fly home – while everyone else was grounded after 9/11?

But enough about Bin Laden and his daddy’s money.

SUPPORT OUR TROOPS! BRING THEM HOME WITH BIN LADEN! REMEMBER 9/11! REMEMBER THE ALAMO!

Assuming the louder you are, the closer to truth.

That he posts this information for everyone to see, FINALLY…
And they arent just Notes to Congress and the Gov.
We expect our gov to tell us everything, but they dont…We are fed information as IF we were watching the Brady Bunch, and expecting something different and interesting to happen.

Get off your Hemorrhoids and KNOW both sides of this story.
If we had gone in after 10 years of our backing the WAR with Russia and rebuilt, this probably wouldnt of happened. AS WE PROMISED.

From my perspective, I am no more afraid of those who preach radical Islam from those who are radical, fundamentalist Christians. I have no time for their assault on what has been our culture because it makes them uncomfortable. One group uses a bomb and the other some new form of moral enterprising. They are both equally scary in my mind. It does not matter if the final warning comes in the form of a mushroom cloud or when you are pulled into federal circuit court with a 7am wake up call for being a political dissident. That being said, I wouldn’t worry given how remote either scenario is.

Finally, I am not a religious man and do not want my country pulled into a religious conflict. Please do not try to convince me that this country was founded on Christian principles. I have no interest in conflict between these groups or their various histories (crusades, whatnot). The future battle for the Middle East needs to be fought with economic and political capital and not at gun point. It would be much simpler to corrupt individuals within the network than to try and kill them (and create ten more for each one that falls).

In summary, both the Christian and Islamic threats are real to our nation’s security and future (but they are being severally overplayed by radical elements within both parties).

You’ve got to admit that his foray into the world of Grecian Formula for Beards was a big success, though.

Please don’t say that! I’m so madly furious with no outlet for my frustration, my head may very well explode this morning – or at least soon.

All we can hope is that bin Laden is in Afghanistan in a non-American sector and one of the media-forgotten coalition troops kills him dead, immediately, on the spot with no permission asked or granted by any authority figure.

Uh…how about he’s a delusional, ignorant, spoiled brat, who has been saved by Daddy from every fuck-up he’s ever made in his life. Daddy’s not going to save him from this one though.

SUPPORT OUR TROOPS! BRING ‘EM HOME!

Oh Bin Ladan will die…

…of natural causes, in a retirement home, in Miami…

Way to go Bush, you inbred nepotist.
