1. Reuters reports that the US suffered 3 casualties...

6. I hold nothing but contempt

for Bush, Cheney and the rest of the "Wolf"pack. Nothing could ever convince me that it was in any half-assed way moral and just to place our soldiers in danger like that. Totally unnecessary. Plus, I feel so bad for the people of Iraq-and Afghanistan too- because life has been pretty bad since the U.S. became involved in their countries. Wars, sanctions, awful leaders, soon to be "globalized" to death. I will never forgive these guys for doing this to the innocent people on all sides. My heart is with those people overseas. Both ours and the suffering natives. I was livid when the administration cut benefits to our soldiers during the war and knowingly sent those same people into a depleted uranium wasteland to get sick and waste away over the years with limited medical treatments. I hammered them in a column about it. This angers me to no end. I can't even begin to express it.
