1. You have to wonder what kind of man

would continue his almost-nonstop campaigning and fund-raising and not appearing to give a thought to the dying. He has no conscience.

3. When Beruit #2 takes the lives of a large number of our soldiers,

(a highly predictable event, btw, as distressing as it is to contemplate), how driven will Bush remain on his phoney pretext to democratize Iraq? Just how many American lives are all those private contracts for construction and oil worth to the Bushies? Not as much as the desire for American voters to put these thugs behind bars when all is said and done, is my guess.

4. An Army of One

Soldier per day.

The drip drip drip of this illegal regime's crimes continues. Unfortunately if's measure is the count of dead American soldiers.

And Brit Hume had the audacity to say that everything was going fine in Iraq.

5. Hume is a WHORE

Bush is also fund raising while he CUTS our soldiers pay...even the National Guard..my son got his paycheck, and it was 200 dollars less...he thought they made a mistake..I told him NO DEAR...BUSH CUT YOU PAY while YOUR FRIENDS DIE IN IRAQ

The BFEE does not care about our kids, or the dead and dying anywhere. They are fodder to be fed into the BFEE machine.

7. Mari, that news needs to get out

I thought the pay cuts didn't take effect until next year. You need to write to your local newspaper. This needs to become public knowledge.

6. i like how

"On July 27, shortly before President Bush began his vacation, the Stars and Stripes published a letter from Pfc. John Bendetti in Tallil, Iraq. "During the day the temperature reaches 127 degrees in the shade," he wrote. "Due to a lack of bottled water, each soldier has been limited to two 1.5 liter bottles a day. We've had two soldiers drop out due to heat-related injuries. ... There will continue to be more heat casualties until something is done."

and idiot is charging 2,000 for a hotdog, while those fighting for his oil can't even get a FUCKING bottle of water! :argh:
