3. IT IS A FUBAR MESS and we are paying for it! It is your money, my
money, our sweat, our children who are doing this. Our arms, our payments to the criminals in power. We fell sleep and let them gain power. Now the world is paying the consequences. That is why we cannot stop now. We have to replace this scum from the higher levels of OUR government. I am so ashamed, sad, and infuriated for all the killing, poisoning, injustice being perpetrated in our name, with our money...

19. They plan on attack the mosque

6. CNN is covering it like a live sporting event
I keep waiting for John Madden with those circles and arrows drawn on the monitor. They're giving complete color commentary! Yay!

"We'll be back to our invasion after this word from Halliburton."

12. El Sadr In Mosque
They're saying El Sadr is hiding in the mosque. It's their holiest site.

Why did they decide to move on Al Sadr now?

18. Great minds think alike--Christ (I mean that, too), how can they
do this for such obvious political gain?

What a sick, sad, administration.

Still, I won't be sorry to see Al-Sadr out of actiion.
