According to the daily Kos: Osama bin Laden and Ronald Reagan have a lot in common

"So is Osama bin Laden truly "evil?" Most people who lost family members at the World Trade Center on 9/11/2001 would probably consider him to be evil. Was President Ronald Reagan evil? Most residents of Beirut who lost family members when the USS New Jersey rained 2,700 pound Mark 7 shells on residential neighborhoods in 1983 during the Lebanese Civil War probably considered Reagan to have been evil. Bottom line? Bin Laden is no more evil than other revolutionary leaders in other times or even than ordinary national leaders who propel their countries to war for "national honor," or to acquire the resources of others, or even to "do good."
To translate Kos-speak: Osama bin Laden isn't a terrorist, he's a freedom fighter. And Reagan wasn't a freedom fighter - he was a terrorist."

DailyKos' attempt to assert moral equivalence between a terrorist leader who masterminded the slaughter of thousands of innocents while aiding a regime that slaughtered women for showing an angle or wearing lipstick and a former American president whose tireless efforts lead to the freedom of millions from Soviet oppression is disgusting.

The writer of the Kos article then asserts that bin Laden's agenda is "congruent with the neoconservative agenda and the corporatist agenda" of the United States, based on something the writer thinks Osama said in his recent video message. But of course the writer's interpretation of the translation from Arabic could be off. But even it if isn't, to believe bin Laden's agenda really is "congruent with the neoconservative agenda and the corporatist agenda," one must believe that bin Laden is telling the truth in his video message.

That's the problem with the entire DailyKos analysis of bin Laden's message: It accepts that the words coming out of bin Laden's mouth are truthful words rather than propaganda meant to mislead and misdirect.

DailyKos, it seems, wants to believe that bin Laden is a truthful freedom fighter battling terroristic America. In fact, the piece shows they've fallen for Osama's world view hook, line and sinker.

At the end of the piece the Kos writer asks, "Are we truly stupid?

Sadly, yes, they are.

I think billyboy64 nailed it but my 2 cents worth is they hate Bush no matter what. I've never seen them say anything bad about Bin Laden until today, the 6 years after the 9-11 terrorist attack.

I am liberal in my politics and and do not hate the president. Osama Bin Laden deserves my hate and has it.

But the president is misguided, stubborn and has done a great deal of long term harm to this country (Financially, diplomatically, socially, psychologically with the politics of fear).

So I do dislike this president.

My loyalty lies right in the Democrat party that great Democrat Party without Bush sticking his little Bantam Rooster head out everytime a person turned on their TV. I wish I could find a TV that has a lock where no Republican could be seen or heard on my TV. What a beautiful TV that would be , I would treasure it till my dying day .

OBL and other Jihadists are against the U.S. because of NeoCons like Bush. Not because of Dems. Why do you like politicians who create enemies?

If I was on your baseball team and mouthed off at the other team causing a brawl, who would YOU hate more? Me or the opposing team member who knocked your teeth out???

Bush doesn't want OBL to be captured. He would rather have Al Qaeda grow bigger. More enemies means more wars. More wars means more war profiteering.

Terror, Terror, Terror, Terror, Terror!!!
OMGZ!

I hear them say more mean things about Bush then they have ever said about bin Laden. I'm not trying to be funny, I'm just stating what I see and hear.

It has to be Bush. You don't hear them screaming about how OBL is the worst terrorist ever.

Why would I hate that retarded rhesus monkey? His daily antics make me laugh, not hate him. What's funnier than someone almost choking himself to death while eating a pretzel?
