July Surprise?



According to The New Republic, several Pakastani official sources have confirmed that the Bush Administration has not only increased pressure recently on the Pakastani government to find and/or kill Osama Bin Laden and other "high-value targets" (HVTs) but has also set a deadline of July 26, 27 or 28 in which to do so.

Why July 26-28? That's when the Democratic National Convention will be in full-swing here in Boston.

According to an official with Pakistan's powerful Inter-Services Intelligence, a White House aide told Lieutenant General Ehsan ul-Haq last spring that "it would be best if the arrest or killing of [any] HVT were announced on twenty-six, twenty-seven, or twenty-eight July."

This despicable administration will stop at NOTHING to gain power. They see the Kerry-Edwards ticket increasing their lead on them and they don't like it. They'll do anything to try to ensure the reelection of the incompetent, bumbling Bush. Well, the gig's up, Shrub! The secret's out!

Keep your eye on this story. If nothing happens by the end of the Democratic National Convention, it doesn't mean we won't see an August, September or October surprise.
