Even as you curl up your lip during a softball interview w/ Matt Lauer and say, "I ain't gonna debate it (Iraq)." your legacy
of a really boneheaded plan of invading Iraq continues on its bloody path. Hell is too nice a place for you.

Bombs kill 4, wound 19 in Baghdad's Christian areas

BAGHDAD — A string of bombings targeting Baghdad's Christian community killed at least four people and wounded 19 others
Wednesday, officials said, less than two weeks after a bloody siege at a Baghdad church left scores dead.

Police said at least 11 roadside bombs detonated within an hour of each other in three predominantly Christian areas of central
Baghdad early Wednesday. Four of the blasts hit houses belonging to Christians, and two mortar rounds also struck Christian
enclaves of the predominantly Sunni neighborhood of Dora in south Baghdad.

In all, four people were killed and 19 wounded, according to police and hospital officials speaking on condition of anonymity because
they were not authorized to speak to the media. It was not immediately clear whether the dead were Christians.

The violence underscores the threat to Iraq's minority Christian community still in shock after the massacre at a Catholic cathedral last
week that left 58 people dead. Al Qaeda militants claimed responsibility for that attack and threatened more violence against the Christians.
