Seven more dead today. Kerry campaign- please find the picture of
the idiot wearing those stupid colored goggles and smiling like an asshole on the aircraft carrier and use it in an ad showing the "Mission Accomplished" sign and images of flag draped caskets and newspaper clippings reporting deaths to our soldiers. Also in the same ad show Rove's quotes about wanting to make war an issue, closing with the idiot in his goddam goggles smiling. Caption: "We went to war- For This Charade?" It's time to get tough. Goddamn them all.

5. He was killed but
Buzzflash has a headline that incorrectly states he was killed in Iraq. He was killed near Iwo Jima. I sent Buzzflash a note, hoping they'll correct this.

Bush Says Attacks Are Reflection of U.S. Gains

By Dana Milbank and Thomas E. Ricks
Washington Post Staff Writers
Tuesday, October 28, 2003; Page A01

President Bush yesterday put the best face on a new surge of violence in Iraq as his top defense aides huddled to discuss additional ways of thwarting the anti-American rebellion there before it becomes more widespread.

The president, speaking after attacks on police stations and a Red Cross facility in Iraq killed at least 35 people, said such attacks should be seen as a sign of progress because they show the desperation of those who oppose the U.S.-led occupation.

"The more successful we are on the ground, the more these killers will react," Bush said as he sat in the Oval Office with L. Paul Bremer, the U.S. administrator in Iraq.

7. Sadly, Kerry was for the war
and even more sadly he is committed to 'stay the course' no matter how many casualties we take.

That is why you will see no 'anti-war' commercials. Americans who are against empire no longer have a voice. We are going to ride this down just as the Romans did. There will be a lot of bloodshed in the meantime. Eventually either the U.S. or Israel will unleash some nukes.

This futile imperialism is destroying what was left of an already sick Western World economy and China and the Far East look to be in a position to pick up the pieces.

As for how Kerry will 'internationalize' the sacrifice, I'll believe that when I see it. So far all we have seen is other nations bailing.
