[Cocoa]

I don't think that's the approved term for Operation Iraqi Freedom...

1. Is this out in print? Wow!

(edited for typo) The media is covering this? Showing pictures? Thank you for the link. wow.

[applegrove]

2. Must be a new policy. Perhaps they traded - more Iraq coverage for

less Rove. Or perhaps * hopes showing the war will take the heat of him, his master & the soon to be pardon.

4. The pictures are pretty tame

They ran with some very sanitized photos, imo.

5. Very true, but it being Time, and covering it even this much seems good.

Did they ever show that Iraqi family of kids whose parents were shot in the car at a check point? The one with the little kids with blood on their hands. I still think that picture could become a rallying point, rather like the napalmed girl in the road for VietNam.

3. I'll second that. Wow.

It really puts things in perspective: Bush's "pep talks" are about to take a nose-dive.

His ratings will be in the 20's after this comes out. (going to the store to buy it).

6. i think the whole bottom and top of that troop carrier

is gone. there were just pieces of our soldiers and the iraqi scattered across the ground.... and bush takes a vacation
