1. This has been going on for over a year.
1. Iraqis often join, not to fight for democracy, but for a JOB!
2. No American soldier would ever be off base in Iraq without armor and a weapon.

It's a disgrace.

2. The repugs are now blaming a 'bad' translator!!!!!
Allawi was actually saying, "Shrub is a great leader."

4. Is Allawi saying that the
wrong track-right track in Iraq is now worse than in America?
More like off the track. I guess he didn't really mean what he said in his PREPARED speech at the Rose garden.

5. For a country to have a 'prime minister,' don't they need a monarchy?
