Somehow, I Should Have Known

I just read the somewhat amusing speech by Osama bin Laden. He gives much praise to Allah, of course. He praises his soldiers of Islam for their hard work in the battle against the Imperial United States.

In between all this, he takes the time to condemn a few other things:

• He blasts the United States involvement in an "unjust" war in Iraq.
• He says the United States is in the war based on "blatant lies" by the federal government.
• He essentially says that democracy doesn't work because it breeds greedy corporations.
• He says the United States is destroying the planet by not ratifying the Kyoto accord.
• He blames America's evil on capitalism.

If it wasn't for the continual references to Allah and Islam, I can't help but think that this speech could easily have been made by Hillary Clinton, Barack Obama, or John Edwards.

I wonder what political party bin Laden supports? Next month, I suppose he will lay out his platform for national health care.
