Expect more Al Qaeda videotapes as the election approaches

Al Qaeda wants hardliners (i.e., Republicans) to win the US elections so they can empower Bush and keep the US making a bigger and bigger mess out of Iraq and the Middle East.

I'm serious.

Ron Suskind's book "The One Percent Doctrine" had a fascinating tidbit about how several senior CIA officials have speculated that Osama wanted Bush to win in 2004 and that's why he released a tape only four days before the US elections. Osama likes the Republicans. The GOP is screwing up US foreign policy royally, they're not making America safer, and their screw ups are helping Osama recruit more terrorists. Osama likely wants nothing better than to have the Republicans stay in office and stay the course.

Mark my words. More Al Qaeda tapes, like this one, are coming.
