John McCain On Release Of Bin Laden Tape




ARLINGTON, VA -- U.S. Senator John McCain today issued the following statement on the release of a purported audio recording of Osama bin Laden:


"The release of another purported Osama bin Laden audio recording
reminds us that he and his henchmen must be hunted down and the al Qaeda terror
network destroyed. But bin Laden's return to the airwaves to beg for unity
in al Qaeda's terror campaign in Iraq is evidence of our success in Iraq, where
we have effectively driven al Qaeda from Anbar province, and have them on the
run elsewhere. That is a great credit to General Petraeus and the brave
Americans he has the honor to command. Evidently, bin Laden has concluded
what surge opponents Harry Reid, Nancy Pelosi and the leading Democratic
presidential candidates seem incapable of acknowledging: Our troop surge has put
al Qaeda on the defensive and security in Iraq -- which bin Laden's top
lieutenant calls al Qaeda's central battlefront -- has improved. We will
succeed if we don't lose our resolve."

Dude, this Obama thing is a scam. Osama is a made up thing just there to enforce all of Bush's decisions, he's Bush's scapegoat and helper. I mean, for almost every decision Bush makes, Osama's actions somehow manage to confirm that Bush is doing the right things. Of course, his version of Hollywood is also going fine, it's a profitable business, the rate at which he churns out videos and audio tapes puts even Paris Hilton to shame.
