Randi Rhodes: Bush Knew Bin Laden's Location, Protected Him There

ABBOTTA-SAD

Libtalker Pushes 'Bush Knew' Conspiracy Theory







One week after the elimination of Osama bin Laden by American forces, "progressives" have put together a number of kooky, agenda-boosting conspiracy theories.

As extra points are scored for advancing the eternal "blame Bush" effort, libtalker Randi Rhodes may well now lead the pack. In her crazy world, W knew exactly where bin Laden was hiding but allowed him to remain villa-bound in order to appease Pakistan's government.


Luckily, Randi's loaded with "facts" to make her case:

RANDI RHODES (11:03): Listen, for the conspiracy freaks out there, for the Glenn Becks of the world with his blackboard - you want a conspiracy theory? Why don't you try one that's based in somewhat in fact? OK?

You've got some facts you can really play with, go nuts on your blackboard, OK - Rush, you too, sit up and take notice! Here's facts: 2005, no one's left at the Bin Laden desk, they close it.

Two thousand-five is when they start building this compound in Abbottabad for Osama bin Laden. Pervez is scared of a coup d'etat so he won't get - he is the obstacle the CIA keeps identifying over and over again about why won't they get Osama Bin Laden, they he's in Pakistan, everyone knows he's in Pakistan.

Two thousand-eight - Bush makes the decision to send our troops over to Abbottabad to train the guys in the 'West Point' there, 800 yards from Osama Bin Laden's door.

And Christiane Amanpour goes on Bill Maher and says, 'Listen, I heard from people in the know that Osama Bin Laden is living in a villa in Pakistan!" So, if you want a conspiracy theory, it's gonna to lead you right back to the Bush Administration KNOWING where Osama Bin Laden was, that he was in Pakistan, the whole - ever since he fled Tora Bora, that he knew the whole time, which is why the President said...


[Bush audio clip airs] -


RHODES: Because he knew where he was! He was with the Pakistani military and they were guarding him, they were keeping him safe, they were protecting him, and the United States of America had reached an agreement that they needed a bogeyman, so what the hell, let the Pakistanis keep him, let the Pakistanis have him, keep him in this military garrison town, we'll even send our troops over there to pretend that, you know, uh, we had no idea! -

Yes, it makes perfect sense to believe Bush would have happily reserved the glory of Osama's capture for the next president to enjoy!
