Week Just Passed: Osama and Most UnderReported Story of Week

The Week Just Passed: Notes of important events from the week prior as Grandmother has determined, not the Old Media. With, as expected, Grandmother’s input


Osama Sends His Greetings


It was so good to hear from Osama last week, Kaitlyn, you can’t imagine. Here’s hoping when you are old enough to read this missive that Osama is properly buried and burning in hell as is his due.

For now, that message from this nice man was very odd.

Gone was the fiery rhetoric about infidels. Indeed, the man seemed pensive, explanatory, thoughtful. Turns out he got the idea of ramming our towers and killing our citizens way back in 1982 over some incident in Lebanon.
What was interesting was his reference to the thugs, genetic misfits and criminal leaders rampant in the Middle East.

Even Osama gets it and read between his lines. Terrorism is NOT a mere nuisance. It’s a war and Bin Laden Bin waging it since 1982.

At any rate, methinks Osama’s little message is going to help Bush. His message is part of the reason why I’m predicting an election day Bush Blowout.

8 Marines Killed in Fallujah Car Bombing


In tributes to these fine men, I couldn’t allow the tragedy of their death in war to fall below the silly political rhetoric of this past week.

Fallujah will be leveled once Bush is elected. In fact, I hear the Iraqis have been begging to bomb that town to oblivion once and for all. And yes, I do think the administration decided to wait for a clear mandate from the American people to do such a thing. The liberals won’t like blowing up an entire town, even if that town is full of criminals that would kill us all. Surely the action won’t pass the ‘Global Test’.

What’s even more amazing, a silly story about missing munitions has the Kerry campaign all atwitter when the loss of these soldiers would make better political fodder. At least as I see it.

Missing Munitions


Yes it was hysteria much like the initial Drudge Report below which started it all.


XXXXX DRUDGE REPORT XXXXX MON OCT 25 2004 22:45:05 ET XXXXX NBCNEWS: CACHE OF EXPLOSIVES VANISHED FROM SITE IN IRAQ BEFORE TROOPS ARRIVED... The NYTIMES urgently reported on Monday in an apparent [sic] October Surprise: The Iraqi interim government and the U.N. nuclear agency have warned the United States that nearly 380 tons of powerful conventional explosives are now missing from one of Iraq's most sensitive former military installations. [The source behind the NYT story first went to CBSNEWS' 60 MINUTES last Wednesday, but the beleaguered network wasn't able to get the piece on the air as fast as the newspaper...


The whole scream fest bordered on the hysterical and was definitely at the ridiculous.


It wasn’t so much that John Kerry needed a talking point but that the Old Media was in on this sham story as much as the Democratic campaign.

The Un’s IAEA, headed by Al Baridi, is as inept as pretty much everything else associated with that agency. Sooooo the IAEA leaks a story trying to pin massive amounts of powerful explosives, powerful enough to launch a nuke so I understand, as missing and caused by our lackadaisical army.

The Kerry campaign immediately comes out with a commercial beating the hell out of Bush, and obliquely-our army, for being so inept as to lose these things.


As the week went on questions arose as to the legitimacy of the IAEA claim, the amount actually missing, maybe Russia took them, perhaps the looters got it all. Until finally some poor schlep soldier guy takes the stand and tells the world that his unit removed the many tons of explosives in questions. In fact, this fine young man testified that his unit destroyed over 7,000 tons of enemy ammunition.

7,000 tons of Saddamn crap he had for nothing but killing because why else with all of those explosives? To blow up the Iraq mountains to build new highways?


And the Old Media and Kerry are moaning about 350 tons!

The Man The Whole World Wants Dead is Dying


Hell must be remaining alive knowing the entire planet wants you dead. This would include your Palestinian buddies, every Jew who ever lived, even your pretty French wife.

No one knows what’s wrong with Arafat. Or they’re not telling.

An interesting story will follow up when the man finally dies to the relief of the world is where, exactly, will the man be buried.

Palestinian officials have given conflicting assessments of Arafat's condition. Some insisted he is stable, while others said he was in serious condition. "We are preparing ourselves for everything possible," Palestinian Communications Minister Azzam Ahmed told the Al-Jazeera satellite television station.

Most Under-Reported Story of the Week


Democrat Tries to Run Over Katherine Harris


A man was arrested Wednesday after he was accused of trying to run down Rep. Katherine Harris and a group of supporters with his car.


Here


Katherine Harris, to jog memories, was the Florida Secretary of State during the 2000 Florida Voting Fiasco. She did her job and was vilified by the nice liberals about her looks and dress. Now they’re trying to kill her outright before the election.

Those Sunday Talk Shows


I refer you to the FreeRepublic Sunday Talk Show Thread , an illuminating discussion of the rhetoric and lies on the political news shows.

As for myself, the main note I made from all the babble was Christie Todd Whitman’s prediction, and she made it very softly, that Bush would win way bigger than expected. Maybe this former New Jersey Governor knows something about those exit and internal polls that we don’t.

Of course I didn’t Forget!


Congratulations to the Boston Red Sox, World Champions.
I don’t like the town’s politics and I sure don’t like that candidate they foisted off on us. But they played just fine and smashed the curse of the bambino once and for all.
