Not a slip - he was having brunch with OBL

Yes, you heard that correctly. I guess I should have added that because the two were having brunch that morning you could have called that "freaky".

I was and still am totally offended by the original posters remarks (see my latest post but with the name of "me") - I wrote that.

I am offended by the comparison, but people want to keep writing about it defending it. What you see as "freaky", I see as "vile and offensive". I would be equally as offended if someone made a comparison between John McCain and some horrible person. People may see the similarities (I never thought about it) but we certainly don't need to bring them up unless of course your for one side and want to plant OBL's name with Barack and Joe's so that people will somehow think the two together. And believe me, I've seen enough Youtube and read enough articles to know there are some people in this country who aren't quite "up on events" who think because the name sounds similar they must be connected somehow.

I can't tell you how upsetting this post has been. I forget where I saw this, but on some website somewhere I saw someone who was an "Obama fan" that had a picture of John McCain & some horrible person that looked similar to McCain and I think they titled it "coincidence?" I also commented on that site saying I found it offensive they would try to connect the two because they looked alike.

So when we're talking about two decent men (and some not so decent traits for both of them), but they are running for President and I don't know which I would vote for yet, I don't need any "coincidence" or "freaky" comments.

On Sep 11, the morning of the attack, Bush Sr. meets with members of the Carlyle Group in Washington. Bin Laden's own brother was at the meeting.

Maybe a Freudian slip? Maybe he feels like a prisoner with...sm
his campaign not going as well as he would like to say it kindly.

The Muslim slip-up in full context

He didn't say he made a mistake, at least not directly after speaking the phrase, but please listen to the video and decide for yourself. It has been taken out of context.
