After reading a few comments over at Calpundit, along with months of DU and similar sites, I've come up with a theory. It's not really original, but it's still a theory:
If we catch Osama bin Laden any time within the next 12 months, the moonbat left will call it a conspiracy.
Think about it. If we catch him in the next couple months, they'll say that we did it to make Bush look stronger on defense than Kerry and draw attention away from the bombings in Spain. If we catch him near the election, it will be an "October surprise" meant to make us think the War on Terror is a success.
If we catch him after the election (assuming Bush wins), they'll say that Bush purposely waited to reveal it so all the Sheeple™ would vote to keep him in office until he could finish the job he started.
In any case, they know that Osama's been caught already, and some even think he's been working with us. We did arm him in the first place (supposedly)!
Damned if you do, damned if you don't...

I thought that only loonies believed that, but apparently my co-workers are loonies in sheep's clothing. Our only hope perhaps is to find Bin Ladin's remains, long dead, in a cave somewhere. Like tomorrow, so we can forget about it before November.

I was reading through those Calpundit comments I linked, and I couldn't believe some of the casual assertions they were making, like "Bush has no conscience," "Bush is evil," "the question isn't if we have bin Laden, but when it will be revealed," "it's impossible to trust this administration," etc.
They say this stuff as if it should be painfully obvious to any intelligent person. Those tinfoil hats must really be in style this year.
