April 23: Iraqi women mourn for a woman and her daughter who were killed during a clash between militias in Baqouba.

BAGHDAD, Iraq — Insurgents killed three more American soldiers in the Baghdad area Sunday and fired mortars near the Defense Ministry in a spree of violence that killed at least 27 Iraqis as politicians began work on forming a new government.

The largest Sunni Arab party raised new allegations of sectarian killings — one of the most urgent issues facing the new Iraqi leadership.

U.S. Ambassador Zalmay Khalilzad said the next government must decommission sectarian militias and integrate them into the national armed forces, warning that the armed groups represent the "infrastructure for civil war."

Sunday's deaths raised to eight the number of U.S. troops killed the past two days. At least 61 American service members have died in April, putting it on track to pass January — with 62 — as the deadliest month this year. It represents a jump over March, which with 31 deaths was the lowest monthly toll for the Americans since February 2004.

3. Maybe their children will be invited to the White House...

Laura can have special "Our Dads Were Killed In Iraq Kids" T-shirts printed up for the occasion.

Then they can stand in a nice little row to sing songs praising our wonderful government for
spreading democracy, while the "Liberal" media catches it all on film.
