The following report was filed at grassfire.org which shows some very real and very troubling comparisons between the Bin Laden tape and the Democratic candidate. Consider this as you go to the polls today and realize that we cannot allow John Kerry in the White House. This is virtually an endorsment by OBL to the Kerry campaign. Danger for this nation lurks in the possibilities. It also proves that the President has been effective when OBL uses a taped message instead of action and touts the President's opponent as the right choice for America ! We cannot let OBL influence our election. He hates Bush, therefore we need Bush for four more years!

Grassfire.org on Kerry, Moore and OBL!
The virtually untold story of Osama bin Laden’s statement released October 29 is the uncanny connection between bin Laden’s words and Michael Moore’s allegations in Fahrenheit 9/11 — allegations which have been supported by Senator John Kerry.
William Safire did mention this briefly in his op-ed of 11/1, but this is really big news that the media is glossing over. It’s big for two reasons.
First, it is so obvious that OBL was reading from Moore’s playbook that it makes it clear that the efforts of Moore and the radical left actually have aided and supported the number-one enemy of the United States. Even if this aid has been indirect, Moore’s efforts to frame this election year in the context of “Bush the incompetent misleader” have given OBL talking points on the eve of our presidential election!
Second, since John Kerry has supported the allegations of Michael Moore, we now have a philosophical link between bin Laden and Senator Kerry. Kerry is on record supporting many of the statements made by bin Laden last Friday. Examples of the Moore-Osama link, and Kerry supports when applicable:
On the “Pet Goat” book:
OBL highlights the outrageous charge that President Bush was flittering away time reading the “Goat” book, giving him even more time to attack America (a ludicrous statement). Where did OBL get such an idea? Maybe Michael Moore? And you could have heard these sentiments from Kerry as well.
Osama: “And we never knew that the commander-in-chief of the American armed forces would leave 50,000 of his people in the two towers to face those events by themselves when they were in the most urgent need of their leader. He was more interested in listening to the child's story about the goat rather than worry about what was happening to the towers. So, we had three times the time necessary to accomplish the events.”
Moore: “Not knowing what to do, with no one telling him what to do, and no Secret Service rushing in to take him to safety, Mr. Bush just sat there and continued to read “My Pet Goat” with the children.”
Kerry: “Had I been reading to children and had my top aide whispered in my ear, 'America is under attack,' I would have told those kids very politely and nicely that the President of the United States had something that he needed to attend to -- and I would have attended to it.”
By the way, it was John Kerry, not George Bush, who said of his own actions immediately after 9/11, “nobody could think,” and then proceeded to sit in a Senate office building for a half hour, unable to even comprehend what to do next. Read our report:

Saudi Connection:
Here, OBL tried to paint a picture connecting President Bush and the regimes of the Middle East. Sound familiar? Again, it’s Michael Moore’s playbook. And John Kerry’s reading along as well.
Osama: We found no difficulties in dealing with the Bush administration, because of the similarities of that administration and the regimes in our countries, half of which are run by the military and half of which are run by monarchs. And our experience is vast with them…. Then, what happened was that he was impressed by the monarchies and the military regimes, and he was jealous of them staying in power for tens of years, embezzling the public money without any accountability. And he moved the tyranny and suppression of freedom to his own country,
Moore: A main focus of his Fahrenheit movie is to paint the picture of the ties of the Bush family to the Saudis and others. Moore shows a series of snapshots showing Bush Sr. visiting the Saudis and President George W. Bush apparently tied to the Middle East regimes as well.
Kerry: The Senator has made charges for months about a Bush-Saudi connection. First, the unholy alliance was going to result in low gas prices around election day to help Bush get re-elected. Here’s Kerry on 4/19/04: If ... it is true that gas supplies and prices in America are tied to the American election, tied to a secret White House deal, that is outrageous and unacceptable to the American people.” Now that gas prices are near record highs, the Kerry clan attacks Bush for not using his secret backroom connections to lower gas prices in time for the election. Kerry on 10/11/04: “"Four years ago, when he was running for president, George Bush said 'what I think the president ought to do is ... get on the phone with the OPEC cartel and say, we expect you to open your spigots. Today, four years later, with gas prices at a record level, we're still waiting for George Bush to make that phone call."
Fraudulent U.S. Election
OBL hints that Bush is an illegitimate president, “installed” by his father. Again, he might as well have been quoting from Moore’s “Fahrenheit”. And Kerry won’t go on record disagreeing either.
Osama: And Bush, the father, found it good to install his children as governors and leaders.
Moore: That Bush stole the 2000 election is the central premise of the Fahrenheit movie
Anti-Semitism
Kerry: The Senator has done nothing to douse the liberal belief that Bush stole the election. In fact, he has only encouraged such thinking. For example, the LA Times reported that Kerry was asked “how it felt to run for the most powerful office in the land”. Kerry’s cynical response: "I don't know, because I'm not running for secretary of state of Florida."
Role of Israel:
It was no surprise when OBL revealed that the 9/11 attacks were somehow linked back to Israel. He probably didn’t get this one from Michael Moore, but Moore has been very openly critical of Israel. Moore should be embarrassed to be even in the same league as OBL.
Osama: But after the injustice was so much and we saw transgressions and the coalition between Americans and the Israelis against our people in Palestine and Lebanon, it occurred to my mind that we deal with the towers. And these special events that directly and personally affected me go back to 1982 and what happened when America gave permission for Israel to invade Lebanon. And assistance was given by the American sixth fleet.
Moore: “I’m talking about a perceived notion that we Americans are supporting Israel in its oppression of the Palestinian people. Now where did those Arabs come up with an idea like that? Maybe it was when the Palestinian child looked up in the air and saw and American Apache helicopter firing a missile into his baby sister’s bedroom just before she was blown into a hundred bits.” (From “Dude Where’s My Country”
“In [the Israeli’s] hearts, they know they are wrong, and they know they would be doing just what the Palestinians are doing if the sandal were on the other foot.” (from “dude”)
