1. are they sure it was a shooting?

Maybe a passing Iraqi just threw a rose really really hard unintentionally.

Thanks for another death, George!

Another family is about to have their holiday season ruined by the policies of this administration.

7. "BRING EM ON"

The December count is starting. I guess there are still a few Iraqi minds not satisfied that things are better now.

It's time to send more young people to Iraq to kill the infidel.</Sarcasm>

3. Why would they shoot a dead soldier?

I know it isn't funny but that's how the syntax struck me at first glance.

Hey it came from Reuters not Don!

5. I know, I didn't imply that either. It's still bad syntax...

Probably the result of Reuters out-sourcing the copy-editing to Walmart.

4. and isn't odd

that no other news as to whether these "guerillas" were caught or killed. It is a shooting gallery over there.

6. Is this the same story from this morning?

They had two wounded in a drive by in Mosul, if it is then one of the soldiers must have died, 446. Fuck you georgie* you fuck faced chimp!

8. kick

The media conveniently forget these poor men and women as soon as they are killed. Let's not do the same here.

10. Isn't that the truth?

What a damned, wretched, unworthy job from our "newsgathering" media.

You can tell the degree of "compassion" and concern our news organizations have, not by what they claim for themselves, but by the actual quality of their efforts.

Welcome to D.U., DeaconBlues. :hi: :hi:
