When Al Jazeera recently aired the latest bin Laden tape, it ran only a few selections. Many have noted how much bin Laden’s rhetoric sounded like Michael Moore’s in sections. But what people have missed, until now, is just how much Osama is also lifting his rhetoric from the Kerry campaign itself — which is made evident by these Al Jazeera outtakes, sent to me by way of that evil little girl from “The Ring” who can make you see things:

* At one point in the tape, bin Laden denounces Americans’ tolerance for homosexuals “including Dick Cheney’s daughter.” This tolerance, he says, makes America “fair game.”

* Turning to the economy, bin Laden denounces American exploitation of Third World workers, but thanks President Bush for “outsourcing” certain military operations along the Afghanistan-Pakistan border.

* While Osama has little positive to say about John Kerry, he does note, after each reference to the Democratic candidate, that the challenger “served honorably in Vietnam.”
