hard to believe that 44 dead in 14 days could seem like

[frogcycle]

an improvement. "only" 14 in the past 8 days. The month still projects to be near a hundred, but not quite like Apr/May.

1. Thank God We're Winning

I'd hate to see what losing looks like.

2. The surge plan is working, didn't you get the memo. We just need more soldiers and

more well trained Iraqis' (you know, the ones still left), more money, and an oil contract umm, sorry, oil law and everything will be coming up roses. Simple. What part of the memo did you miss? Remember now, Dubya did tell us we would see an upsurge in casaulties along with the surge or did you miss that part, didn't see it coming??

If they, the insurgents, take out just another bridge or two, well, it is going to be a really long hot summer for our soldiers over there. Look back to what happened to Britain when they tried this BS way back shortly after WWI. Our military does not stand a chance in hell.
