Sorry if McCain is your guy, but he makes my skin crawl just thinking about listening to him, and no one is more boring. Match him up as a duo with Carville, in a war of words, over which party is going to do more damage to Al Q.

from article:
'Ross and other ABC staffers say they believe that a Bush administration official leaked the story to Internet gossip Matt Drudge as a way of pressuring the network into airing the tape, which would heighten concerns about terrorism in the final week of the president's reelection campaign. They note that whoever gave the information to Drudge had a transcript of the tape'. |

Rdtf mentioned the terrorists aversion to pigs, and how there should be some way to capitalize on that fear. I read a story about Gen. Jack Pershing about 1914. There was a rash of terrorism in the middle-east. He captured 50 of the terrorists, lined them up in the town square with a large audience of townspeople, slaughtered 2 pigs in front of everyone, then had his men dip their bullets into pig blood and shot 49 of the terrorists. The 50th was released to spread the word. There was not another incident for many, many years.
Not politically correct, I'll admit, but very effective! _________________ Please sign this petition: http://www.patriotpetitions.us/Kerry/ |

If the Whitehouse did leak the info to Drudge it would only be because it would of never seen the light of day otherwise. ABC should not be deciding when the American Public should be informed of such a serious matter. |

Just who in the hay do they think they are, they have released other tapes with no qualms. They got caught with their britches down and now their undies are in bundle. _________________ twicearound

The reason ABC did not report it is because it hurts Kerry to get an endorsment from terrorists. _________________

CIA, FBI AUTHENTICATE NEW QAEDA TERROR TAPE; ABCNEWS EXECUTIVES CONSIDER POLITICAL IMPLICATIONS OF AIRING
**Exclusive**
U.S. Intelligence Officials tell Drudge: The CIA and FBI late Wednesday authenticated a disturbing new al Qaeda videotape which warns the next terror attack will dwarf 9/11.
"The streets will run with blood," and "America will mourn in silence" because they will be unable to count the number of the dead, a man claims on the video.
Further claims on the video: America has brought this on itself for electing George Bush who has made war on Islam by destroying the Taliban and making war on Al Qaeda.
ABCNEWS obtained the tape from a source in Waziristan, Pakistan over the weekend. The network has withheld airing it, initially citing concerns over its authenticity.
One senior federal official alleged ABCNEWS is now holding back from broadcasting any portion of the video out of fear it will be seen as a political move by the network during election week.
One ABC source, who demanded anonymity, said Thursday morning, the network was struggling to finding the correct journalistic "balance."
"This is not something you just throw out there while people are voting," the ABC source explained.
MORE
The terrorist's face is concealed by a headdress, and he speaks in an American accent, making it difficult to identify the individual.
The tape appears to be from al-Qaeda's media liaison organization. It has a banner crediting the Sahab Production Committee. The speaker refers to Bin Ladin and Zawahiri as "our leaders" and praises the 11 September attacks.
Intelligence Officials tell DRUDGE:
Videotape message likely produced in late summer '04 due to references to current events such as the 9/11 Commission.
Individual is college educated, either American born or raised in the U.S.
The U.S. is actively seeking to identify the individual. Adam Gadhan - aka Adam Pearlman of Southern California - remains the chief candidate but another still unknown individual may be possible.
US intelligence officials say the danger is that if this individual is an American citizen, he will be immersed in the culture and customs and have the ability to travel in America freely and unnoticed.
