A Blog For All: “Die Not Dye.”

Talking Points Memo: “If my predictive powers are still working right, I’m sure I’ll catch flack for taking such a mocking attitude toward this man who has so much American blood on his hands. But this, I think, is only the flip side of the vaunted perch we insist on giving him, a insistence that is a paradoxical part of Bushism. They are tacit partners in creating the world in which we now live.”

Ed Driscoll: “The New Bin Laden Video: What Will Robin Givhan Say?”

Jihad Watch: “Noam Chomsky and Michael Scheuer must be so proud.”

Protein Wisdom: “To borrow from Voltaire, if Osama bin Laden didn’t exist, Republicans would have to invent him. At the very least, they might want to send him a fruit basket.”

Ace of Spades: “Watch him criticize Democrats, Kos-like, for not being forceful enough in trying to end the War in Iraq, and even praise Noam Chomsky and the Kyoto Accord. I’ll give him this: he knows his target audience.”

NewsBusters: “Anchor Elizabeth Vargas explained: ‘Seems to be referring to that particular story that was run on July 16th of this summer by our Nick Watt in Baghdad.'”

Jawa Report: “Here’s a clip of the new Osama bin Laden video already being circulated on the forums.”

Belmont Club: “One of the more interesting lines of speculation I’ve read is that Osama Bin Laden’s mysterious neither-live-nor-dead condition is consciously intended to play to the belief in the Hidden 12th Imam.”

Obi’s Sister: “My Osama is deader than your Fidel.”

Wake Up America: “How many times have we said ‘they are listening to us’, they are ’emboldened by our Democratic politicians’… ”

Daimnation! : “Needless to say, they’ll have a field day with this one, and the fact that Osama seems to be repeating leftist talking points will have even more people saying it’s another devious Karl Rove set-up.”

Little Green Footballs: “It’s another pretty direct appeal to the Western left.”

Confederate Yankee: “Name that goon.”

Pierre Legrand’s Pink Flamingo Bar: “The ‘experts’ will point to the events the deadman mentions in this leftist inspired screed, such as the recent elections but if you watch carefully you will notice that the video freezes just about the time Osama Bin Gone starts into the areas the ‘experts’ say is proof of this being recent.”

Daily Kos: “Whenever ‘Uncle Bin’ does this, it results in renewed support and better ‘numbers’ for Bush…and I doubt this is merely a ‘coincidence’.”

Gay Patriot: “Is this a foreshadowing of things to come? I can see the bumper stickers now! Osama/Obama ’08. Hillary/Bin Laden – Bill Misses You. Edwards/Osama – Delivering Both Americas To Islamism.”

Atlas Shrugs: “The Bin Laden sounds like a candidate for the Democrat presidential ticket.”

GunToting Liberal: “Frankly, I’ve seen and heard much better, and would strongly advise Mr. Bin Ladin to not give up the terrorist ‘day gig’ anytime SOON…”

Stop the ACLU: “ABC claims to have the transcript, and he criticizes the Democrats for not stopping the war in Iraq. I thought they said that he wanted us there.”

The New Editor: “We also get a few odd references to global warming — in an apparent attempt to link the issue to more anti-corporate populist rhetoric.”
