BAGHDAD, Iraq There's word this morning of eleven more American deaths in Iraq.

The U-S command reports the toll includes nine Army soldiers and two Marines.

Four soldiers were killed in separate small-arms-fire attacks yesterday in Baghdad. Four more died when a roadside bomb blew up as their patrol passed by northwest of the city. The ninth soldier was killed Sunday when his vehicle was hit by a roadside bomb.

The military today also reports that two more Marines have been killed, both in fighting in western Iraq's particularly dangerous Anbar province. One was killed Sunday. The other died the day before. They were among five U-S Marines killed over the weekend: four in combat, one in a vehicle accident.

2. Just another news story for conservatives to ignore
- They don't care if our kids are getting slaughtered
- They don't care if a republican congressman is fucking young boys
- They don't care if kids are getting shot up in our schools

"Conservatives" in America are scum of the earth garbage human beings. We have to remain vigilant to protect our constitution against their goal of destroying it.

3. I know it's not just me
for the last month or two the casulty count seems to be going through the roof with nary a word about it. If there is a report it's a quick almost footnote to today's events.

4. It is so sad.....
and yet the maniac in the Oval Office still insists things in Iraq are going fine and we aren't hearing about the good things. He has a lot of blood on his hands. My heart goes out to the families of the dead. There lives will never be the same.

5. Liberal media my ass.
If it really were a liberal media, we would honor those brave troops who died in George's War at the top of every newscast, every day...even if it took up the whole news hour. It should always be at the top of every newscast, but it isn't. The corporate media does not want us to know that there is a few wars going on right now. They want us to go to the mall and forget about Iraq and Afghanistan.
