If Bin Laden Lived In America

After surfing some right-wingnut blogs for the past few days, I couldn’t help shake my head in amazement and chuckle out loud on the common thread about how Usama bin Laden is a democrat and, those on left won’t face up to this truth after viewing his latest video.

But these folks typically ignore the facts and prefer to buy into the propaganda and judge a terrorists motives and intentions only by their shallow likes and dislikes. Their logic would place us in a war of personal preferences and not against an ideological enemy. They throw in bin Laden’s flattering quotes about Noam Chomsky as proof but completely ignore his religious references to Jesus Christ and the Virgin Mary’s ties to Islam. If Chomsky makes UBL a lefty, then Jesus makes UBL a Christian.

In this latest video, the right prefers to ignore UBL’s rigid Islamic ideological policies, but swear up and down this is a religious war. This is just the tip of the iceberg.

"There are no taxes in Islam, but rather there is a limited Zakaat [alms] totaling only 2.5%." -- Usama bin Laden, September 2007

This statement clarifies UBL's policy and completely disqualifies Republicans and their lackeys attempts to associate Usama with democrats. There is just no way, just no way any tax and spend democrat would survive in Usama’s right-wing religio-world. But this sounds like Utopia for Conservatives, Republican types and IRS abolitionists.

This is all propaganda and war supporters have bought into it hook, line and sinker.

Professional? Gasbag:
It's irrefutable: If bin Laden lived in America, he'd be most inclined to vote Democrat.

Fair enough. Whether you’re the Pope, Vladimir Putin, George W. Bush or Usama bin Laden, if you want to end this dirty war in Iraq – Vote Democratic. But who really cares whether bin Laden would vote democratic or rails against capitalism, or thinks George W. Bush is a failure, or maybe enjoys eating pizza or his likes or dislikes? He’s a terrorist!!

What is more indicative of UBL, if I may throw in an equal supposition is: If bin Laden lived in America with the same religious convictions, sexist ideas, tax policy, political philosophy and general views of world domination he has today but only marginalized by an American upbringing, guess which party he would be in? And more importantly, who would vote for him?

The same people who voted for George W. Bush – that’s who!
