So, the more of our troops and iraqi police and civillians in general get killed, the more desperate and close to defeat the enemy must be? What the fuck are they smoking and why haven't they legalized it so the rest of us can live in that fantasyland? I can only hope that saddam gets an international trial so that maybe he can implicate pretty much half of the current republican power base for building him up back when it was convenient for them to do so. this has been a test of the emergency birdmad ranting system yeeeeeearrrrrrgh! 040203 what's it to you? who go blather from
