The Blunt truth on bin Laden
by WonkoKevin
Wonkosphere hasn’t jumped into the broader political process, yet, but this one is just to juicy to leave by the side of the road… Missouri Republican representative Roy Blunt was asked on PBS about the battle over government surveillance. Here’s his response: ”Osama bin Laden calls the United States, we should know it. If Osama bin Laden calls and it turns out to be a call that didn’t matter, there are ways to minimize that. In all likelihood, if Osama bin Laden called, it wouldn’t be a matter that we shouldn’t know about. You know, if he calls to order a pizza and says, ‘Deliver the pizza to Cave 56 in Bora Bora,’ that’s something we ought to know at that minute. We should not have to go back to go to court to monitor these calls just in case they call somebody in the United States.”
So Osama bin Laden is in Tahiti and we can’t find him? Is this the tip of the iceberg on the Pizza Delivery Scandal of 2007?
