3. Bush needs another 30 soldiers dead in one fell swoop

4. Sad to say, he no doubt will get them.

Another loaded helicopter, a transport landing at Baghdad airport, a rocket in the middle of a crowded mess tent.

It's bound to happen.

7. The Bushies always try to kill two birds w/one stone

I'm hoping for a two-fer myself--
