Al Qaeda supposedly wants John McCain to win the election so we will become “exhausted”. I think we passed exhausted a while ago. You know how some people have said they will move out of the country if McCain wins the election — Tiny Fey has said she will “leave earth” if he’s elected. I wish we were farther along on that Mars Coloney. Maybe we can find a planet like this instead:

“On Al-Qaeda Web Sites, Joy Over U.S. Crisis, Support for McCain Washington Post — 10-22-08/ Al-Qaeda is watching the U.S. stock market’s downward slide with something akin to jubilation, with its leaders hailing the financial crisis as a vindication of its strategy of crippling America’s economy through endless, costly foreign wars against Islamist insurgents. And at least some of its supporters think Sen. John McCain is the presidential candidate best suited to continue that trend.
“Al-Qaeda will have to support McCain in the coming election,” said a commentary posted Monday on the extremist Web site al-Hesbah, which is closely linked to the terrorist group. It said the Arizona Republican would continue the “failing march of his predecessor,” President Bush. The Web commentary was one of several posted by Taliban or al-Qaeda-allied groups in recent days that trumpeted the global financial crisis and predicted further decline for the United States and other Western powers. In language that was by turns mocking and ominous, the newest posting credited al-Qaeda with having lured Washington into a trap that had “exhausted its resources and bankrupted its economy.”
It further suggested that a terrorist strike might swing the election to McCain and guarantee an expansion of U.S. military commitments in the Islamic world. “It will push the Americans deliberately to vote for McCain so that he takes revenge for them against al-Qaeda,” said the posting, attributed to Muhammad Haafid, a longtime contributor to the password-protected site. “Al-Qaeda then will succeed in exhausting America.” “
Nothing is going to make sane people vote for John McCain. Why would they post something on a message board they know we could easily find that would explain their motives and their US election goal?
