Osama was not too worried about Uncle Joe.
The Telegraph reported:
US officials have revealed that Osama bin Laden’s diaries contain the rather startling conclusion that he didn’t think Vice President Joe Biden was worth bumping off (hat tip: a tweet from my New York colleague Jon Swaine).
According to ProPublica, the Obama administration is briefing that Barack Obama was bin Laden’s the “top target” (no surprise there) while “military chiefs like the chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, the defense secretary” were also major scalps.
But Joe Biden’s scalp (hair plugs and all)? Apparently, not so much. A counterterrorism official said: “There is a note indicating that the vice president is not an important target because that position has less weight.”
To be fair, it seems that Uncle Joe was not mentioned by name and the al-Qaeda leader tied the comment to the constitutional weakness of the vice-presidency rather than the antics of the garrulous current occupant.

Very Interesting. The Usurper-In-Chief is targeted and Bozo Biden is spared. http://www.BirtherReport.com

So even a lunatic doesn’t want him….?
MAJ Mike commented:
Heh! Even the jihadis recognize that Biden does more damage in his present position than his death would create. The death of THE WON is probably rated the same way, except it would be more symbolic.
dwd commented:
It would have been too funny if Osama had actually used Biden’s name.
Now we see why this was released: another ego boost for Obama since he was the #1 target.
Mike W commented:
According to ProPublica? You mean the nerve center of the soros funded(bought) media think tank is calling Biden irrelevant? Seems to me if this was a serious report that soros would be the top target as he funds and directs obama and the DNC.
Valerie commented:
I agree that targeting the VP would not be what Al Qaeda would have in mind. Still, I think Joe would have made a hell of a wartime president.
Max commented:
” According to ProPublica”……. Obama was Osama’s target and Biden, not so much?
Isn’t ProPublica one of Soros’ 30 media outlet tools? Since it is, the information may well be bogus.

Joe who? Wasn’t he someone important?
Iconoclast commented:
Even the diaperheads recognize joey hairplants as an utterly worthless, babbling idiot. As such, he is less a danger to them – and to this nation – than Øshama.
Marie commented:
He probably figured that Crazy Uncle Joe will get drunk at the family reunion and drop his pants, then fall into the lake and drown himself. So why bother.
Carbon Pootprint commented:
Maybe Biden will decide to primary Obama and use it as a slogan. “I’m Joe Biden and I ain’t worth killing”

Truly AQ has a collective lump of feces for brains.
Why would they liquidate the most valuable resource in the campaign to destroy America?

================================
If I believed for one second this would be the only consequence of leaving the other maggot (OBL) alive for a bit longer, I would agree with you. Unfortunately, many good people die every day because of OBL and there is little likelihood the diaperhead jihadis could bring off such a coup, or at least not without collateral damage, likely massive.

I agree with #8 Jim.
“Joe who?”
That’s why. If they offed Biden, America’s response would be the world’s biggest chorus of:
“Meh.”
Taqiyyotomist commented:
I’d be more P.O.ed and demoralized if they offed a NJ tollbooth worker.
I think that AQ knows this.
