Endorsing bush

I look forward to seeing this show up in one of the zillion bush ads currently supporting fine programming in 18 states:

The statement said it supported President Bush (news – web sites) in his reelection campaign, and would prefer him to win in November rather than the Democratic candidate John Kerry

The bush-cheney campaign must be thrilled get an endorsement from al-Quaeda.

Futility

Jaquandor nails this one:

I have no trouble imagining the guy’s cry of “Oh, noooooooo!” as he reached the point of impossibility in his plan.

Yep, he probably would not cut it on The Apprentice.


osama Chase

Ok, this would be great news pretty entertaining if they succeed:

Osama bin Laden narrowly escaped capture by French troops working with U.S. forces in Afghanistan, perhaps several times, the head of France’s armed forces said Monday.
French soldiers are determined to capture the fugitive head of the al Qaeda network by the end of the year, Gen. Henri Bentegeat said.

And, yes, even though they are working with US forces it would be pretty ironic if it is the French that actually capture him.
Via Max at MaxSpeak who is looking forward to a religious conversion.
Update (3/18): Tom at The Funny Farm speculates what might happen if the French capture Osama.
