I feel as though I’m on some kind of repeat, as this week the Democrats are displaying more than the usual paranoia the closer we get to November. I guess that’s what continual losing does for you.

However, this week Eleanor Cliff shows again why she and the rest of the left is about two fries short of a Happy Meal.

“Democrats have a good chance of winning back one or both houses of Congress, and they‚Äôre wondering whether this election‚Äôs October surprise could be capturing Osama. Peter Bergen, one of the few Western journalists to interview the terrorist leader, spoke at a panel in Washington this week after a preview screening of a new CNN documentary, ‚ÄúIn the Footsteps of Bin Laden.‚Äù Bergen said the administration has a pretty good idea where bin Laden is‚Äîbased in part on the vegetation that appears in his video. Bergen also wondered why, with all the money the administration is spending, it isn‚Äôt staking out the offices of the Al-Jazeera offices where the tapes are dropped off for more clues to Osama‚Äôs whereabouts.

Bush once vowed to capture bin Laden dead or alive. Now he and Karl Rove only haul him out when he‚Äôs politically useful. Bin Laden has been eclipsed and overtaken by Hassan Nasrallah, the leader of Hizbullah and the new voice of Arab anger. Bergen was asked, ‚ÄúIf Osama is eliminated, what then?‚Äù He replied that ‚ÄúBinladenism‚Äù is the worry now, and it‚Äôs far more dangerous than the man himself. It‚Äôs unlikely that bin Laden would be taken alive. He has said repeatedly, ‚ÄúBetter a grave than an American prison.‚Äù Martyrdom is such a powerful force in the Arab world that death would only enhance bin Laden‚Äôs mythical status.”

Yeah, on November 1st, the GOP will call a news conference on a large stage and after making the announcement that they have captured Bin Laden, they will pull back the curtain and show him in chains – just like King Kong!

Right!

Ok Eleanor, take three and DON’T call in the morning.

Once again the left shows why we can’t trust them with national security. Eleanor calling Osama Bin Laden a “myth”, shows the belief that many on the left have had since 9/11 and that being that terrorists are just wayward souls who need a little love and therapy and heck, they might even grow to like us! Hell, after all, Rove was right, that’s why they got so indignant. Truth hurts ya know.

Note: Eleanor using the example of PLO/Arab Terrorists loving Christiane Amanpour of Saddam loving CNN doing a puff piece on Bin Laden just puts icing on the point.

Scary people these Democrats.
