His comments show just how far out of touch the left is with mainstream America.

This guy makes Dukakis look like a viable candidate. Bush will absolutely crush him.

That monster is suggesting innocent until proven guilty? How could we, especially in America, ever stand for a fair trial? This is a outrage!

Yeah, when I heard this, the first thing I did was slap my forehead. Jesus, talk about a major slip up. In an era of sound bites, the only thing worse than this lately was Michael Jackson saying "It's still ok to sleep with kids". Fuck fuck fuck this was dumb.

Of course, if you hear the whole thing in context then it makes sense for the point he was going for. The problem is, no one will hear it in context. Then again, Bush made some huge blunders with public speaking before and he (almost) got elected so maybe since this is so early in the campaign, it won't be TOO bad.

Ah, who am I kidding...we are FUCKED.

Well, its not that he is out of touch with America, cuz most Americans DO favor fair trials and all that, but this was akin to Ahnold saying "Hitler was misunderstood".

The left really isnt the problem here though. I'm sure there are quite a few people on the right who want to know where the hell Osama is too, and why their fearless leader has done jack shit to produce him. The Left just has the balls to take Bush to task, as opposed to following Dubya blindly like the Right (mostly) does.

Bah if he does go to trial there is no doubt he will be found guilty, especially if its an American jury.
I'd laugh if he was found innocent, yet frightened at the same time...:eyemouth:

The problem lies in trying him, where do we find a jury of his peers that aren't biased. Certainly an American jury wouldn't even pay attention before getting him dead.

"I'm sure there are quite a few people on the right who want to know where the hell Osama is too, and why their fearless leader has done jack shit to produce him.

I'm certain that our troops in Afganistan who are struggling every day to maintain order and hunt down the likes of Osama would be so uplifted by your opinion that they are doing "jack shit" to find him.

Are you suggesting that if Gore or Dean were president, they'd have turned up Osama in a matter of hours? Who's the one being blind now?

Yes. Technically, Osama is innocent. However, so is Michael Jackson.


Both are sooooo going to burn.
