7. That's what I was just wondering...
Has Laura Ingraham been on Fox lecturing them on their coverage? Are they covering all the good things happening in Iraq?

6. No good news here (whatsoever)...
Edited on Sun Mar-26-06 02:38 AM by Peter Frank

The manufactured Iraq war serves global corporate interest's alone -- just like the "Patriot" Act.

8. The Right Wingers are screaming the good news isn't shown
So why don't they show it? Somewhere, anywhere. They bitched and whined and moaned. So why don't they show the positives?

13. Baghdad youth center newly renovated with U.S. funds
US envoy urges crackdown on Iraq militias
http://today.reuters.com/news/newsArticle.aspx?type=topNews&storyID=2006-03-25T173405Z_01_L17519334_RTRUKOC_0_US-IRAQ.xml&archived=False
By Nick Olivari
Sat Mar 25, 2006 -- Reuters


BAGHDAD (Reuters) - The U.S. ambassador urged Iraq's divided leaders to rein in militias on Saturday as political blocs failed again to break a deadlock on forming a unity government that they hope can avert civil war.

Zalmay Khalilzad, who is pressing hard for a government more than three months after elections, issued a tough warning about the militias, many of which have ties to powerful Shi'ite leaders and are entrenched in Iraqi security forces and police.

"More Iraqis are dying from the militia violence than from the terrorists," he told reporters during a visit to a Baghdad youth center newly renovated with U.S. funds.

this is good news isn't it? of course you have to dodge bullets and bombs on your way to the youth center
