1. I saw an interview w/ an RNC convention goer.
She was a very pretty woman from Texas whose brother was killed in Iraq. Totally gung ho for * while saying he needs to tell us how he is going to get us out of Iraq. She said, "I'm sure he has a plan, he just needs to tell us more about it." It was pathetic to watch.

3. Why is this never shown on the news channels or web sites???
I go to cnn, msnbc and fox, and none of them ever report any of the deaths from the war in Iraq. They are not reporting this. The sheeple think Americans have stopped dying over there.

Many more lives destroyed by the stupid chimpster.

4. When was the last time you saw a field report from Iraq?
Not a talking head one in the green zone, but an on the ground battlefield one?

We live in a dictatorship and don't even know it.
