Default Horror and Tragedy in Baghdad, Iraq

Had to dig through the news to find this but, bombings in the Iraqi capital have left 183 civilians dead. The death toll is still rising. Another 50 have died in other areas around that war torn nation. May they RIP.

Good thing we're there keeping a lid on the violence.

The longer we focus on VaTech and the weather, the less we get this news. The news cycle, along with outright media colaboration, perpetuates the insane agenda of Bush and his pasty-faced, neocon wierdos in the White House. They're counting on it. Anna Nicole, VaTech, waiting for a message from deep space any day now.

Yeah, what are those media people thinking by focusing on the worst mass murder in the history of the United States..? Don't they know that their job is to advance the liberal hate-Bush agenda..?!?

Hey, if McCain can walk through a market with 100 American soldiers and dozens of helicopters following him then we must be doing a heck 'uv a job.

Seriously, I've been tuning in and out of MSNBC all day and they haven't mentioned Iraq once.

Care to respond to the dead in Iraq, or is that not important. Now you think the "liberal media" is doing a good job? What does this mass murder have to do with anything other than for those who go there, died there, or their families?

Hmmm, 33 dead by domestic terrorist, 183 dead by foreign terrorists. Do you mean that the domestic terrorist trumps the foreign terrorist? Is that due to a Bush connection. Both tragic, both need coverage.

Does any of this relate to the "surge" and whether or not it is working? Or is it just an anomoly or a spike?? I don't know what is going on there, and do not trust any media from either side.

Do you try to avoid talking about the Iraq war because you're embarrassed or because it suits your agenda?

Actually, it speaks volumes about how the "Wolfowitz Pack" values lives of innocent non-American men, women and children.
