PLAMED!!
"A small private intelligence company that monitors Islamic terrorist groups obtained a new Osama bin Laden video ahead of its official release last month, and around 10 a.m. on Sept. 7, it notified the Bush administration of its secret acquisition. It gave two senior officials access on the condition that the officials not reveal they had it until the al-Qaeda release.

Nah, that's hoping too much. Pigs will fly sooner.

The activist is not the man who says the river is dirty. The activist is the man who cleans up the river. The activist is not the person that complains on a blog read by few. The activist is the person that stands on a street daily with a sign protesting wars. The activist is the person that is constantly pestering their senators and congressmen. Just saying. :-)
