    It’s hard to report good news when you are getting shot at.

    Fox News needs a much larger presence on the ground in Iraq, don’t you think?


  3. Ben says:

    Silly reporters trying to tell us the truth.

    Number of Iraqis killed last month: 1100.

    Number of US servicemen killed yesterday: 4.

    Number of rich people receiving tax breaks: not enough.

    Let’s invade Iran for regime change, free the oppressed there, kill even more people, have the Iranian army kill more US soldiers, nuke the nuclear enrichment facilities, kill, kill, kill.

    Thou shalt kill, thou shalt steal, thou shalt covet if you belong to the Bush Cabal.

    Too bad that it’s all true. A holocaust in the making, for sure. It won’t be evident until it is all over.

    Which propaganda tool should the neocons whip out of their bag today? Oh, such wise and holy ‘men’ that they are.

    The Republicans can tax the poor some more, send them to the ME, and the rich can profit with more riches.

    All for a nice sexed-up war that can continue for the next fifty years.

    It can’t get any better. It’s as good as it gets.

    and 29 troops in 11 days , what a thoughtless moron bush is

    Ill be here in another 11 days saying and another 29 troops, endless violence


  9. Bruce Gorton says:

    Sometimes, a small conspiracy theorist part of me wonders, if it really is the Insurgents killing reporters. Think about it, the insurgents have to know how powerful an ally the press can be, there are relatively few protests out there where the protesters aren’t kind enough to oblige and print their banners in English, and yet they are out there killing reporters.

    Like I said, it is a small part of me I normally don’t pay much attention to.

    9# check again and you will see America HAS shot loads of Journalists, especially reuters ones


  11. Monkey Knut Wrench says:

    seems Karma is so quick these days


  12. WMD says:

    Thats war.

    Seems things are continuing to slowly slipping away on the ground in Iraq.
