BAGHDAD, Dec. 28 -- The U.S. military death toll in Iraq this month continued to rise as officials reported Thursday that five more American service members had died.

The latest deaths brought to 100 the number of service members killed in December, according to iCasualties.org, an independent Web site that tracks military fatalities.

1. he worked on it for THREE HOURS then spoke for THREE MINUTES PT!!!

yes INDEED!

[Bluebear]

2. Big frigging "WORKING HOLIDAY" Skittles!

Every damn news broadcast has been pushing this working crap. I think they're all down there cooking up something more sinister, personally.

[Skittles]

8. CHECK IT OUT PT!!!

THREE HOURS AND THREE MINUTES!!! http://www.casperstartribune.net/articles/2006/12/29/ap...

[beam me up scottie]

11. No way!

It says "nearly" three hours.

Translation: He farted when it was brought up and started talking about shiny things.

[Skittles]

12. everyone else said "several hours"

now we can surmise it was probably......TWO.....and you are correct, even two hours is a bit of a stretch for the prezinit

[beam me up scottie]

13. He, much like the people who voted for him, has the attention span of a gnat.

They do look worried, though.

Maybe they're running out of people to sacrifice.

Who's next?

Condi?

Cheney?

[Botany]

3. So we are 4 away from 3,000?

And to keep all these people from dying in vain more Americans
must die in bush's lost cause?

[Cooley Hurd]

4. Jesus - we're 9 away from the 3000 mark...

I was hoping against hope that the 3000 milestone wouldn't be met by the New Year, but it now appears likely. Goddamn it!

[beam me up scottie]

7. Oh, but no worries!

We'll have a hanging to celebrate, remember?

The death of #3000 will go virtually unnoticed by the msm, just like the funerals of the other 2999 will have gone unnoticed by bush.

5. I can`t for the life of me understand

why media starlets aren`t covering Bush`s indecision as a major news story. It`s like Americans are trapped in a burning building but the fire chief goes on a bike ride before changing into his fire fighting gear. Why does Bush need more time? The horrific problem he created in Iraq isn`t something new that just cropped up.

10. Great analogy.

That's one of the reasons why I killed my tv.

[izzie]

16. I think he will just add more troops. I think Bush thinks he is an

autocrat. I think being President this long has even self fed this thinking. I am also sure that the stock market did not want any to-do to get in the way of all the buying we all do for Xmas. Like living in a madhouse I would say.

[Bluebear]

19. That is a WONDEFUL analogy.

i am going to steal it for a thread

[Binka]

6. Lots Of Unhappy Faces Must Mean They Haven't Had Enough Death!

Fuck these evil motherfuckers. Fuck em to hell.

[malaise]

9. I couldn't say it better n/t

[Philosoraptor]

14. It looks like they're stepping over corpses

[Philosoraptor]

15. Don't rush the man, Jeez, give him just a wee bit more time.

[maine_raptor]

17. What's with this "Casual" look?

Suit jackets with no ties????????

What did the Secret Service make them remove their ties just in case there was a accident involving ties and the chandelier?

And Condi...........she looks like she's going bowling or something.

[global1]

18. Notice That They Are All Looking Downward - Can't Look America.....

in the eye. Very telling.

[maxsolomon]

20. they're very very sad that they fucked up

don't you feel sorry for them?

[Pacifist Patriot]

21. It's funny you should say that.

Well, not funny, but coincidental. You know what I mean.

I was just talking to someone about how so many of the "candid" photos from this administration show the tops of their heads. I think their body language and facial expressions speak almost as loud as their criminal and inhumane actions.

[fooj]

22. Yep. He's definitely a prick...among other things.

[Jo March]

23. Wasn't there a projection showing that we wouldn't hit 3000 until next year?

It just keeps getting worse and worse and they all walk around like idiots.

They only care about themselves. They don't care one bit about the troops. Not one bit.
