Note that in the furor over McCain's absence from the supposed "cone of silence" at the Saddleback forum last Saturday night, the McCain campaign is repeatedly stating that McCain did not hear any of the proceedings... but they aren't saying he wasn't coached or fed the questions by someone who did hear the broadcast, are they...?

During Saturday night's forum in Saddleback, Senator John McCain was asked what income level constituted "rich" - and he answered $5 million or more. Other millionaires ($2 million... $3 million,... $4 million...) aren't rich, in McCain's view, and shouldn't be taxed as if they were... It makes you wonder just how out of touch John McCain is with most of Americans. So does this video...

1,000 dead in 17+ months of fighting. Hmmm. Another couple thousand and they'll almost get to the number that died in the three day Battle of Gettysburg -- and that's just from the Union side. The sneering triumphalism in such media reports is a little too obvious for me. You just know they've been waiting to hit this number for months now.
And since many of these 1,000 deaths are the direct result of the terrorism that we are supposedly being distracted from by fighting there, logical consistency requires that they (1) deduct those non-combat deaths, or (2) admit that we aren't distracted from the War on Terror after all.
(*cue Jeopardy theme*)

McGhee: I was wondering the same thing. Those "anonymous" blog sites hosted on blogspot...I notice that the preponderance of them are all "hate Bush" 'authors'.
About the thread, these truly are those who make America a great nation. No greater love...

It wounds my heart to read the statistics. Warriors, men and women, many yet to reach their full potential.
The politicians that can't end politics at our shores. THE ELITE MEDIA whose only memory is found in a sordid tally of the deaths, who in their secret souls find horrid glee. Those left behind; their sorrow shows in each day they continue to live out their lives, now a hollow existance at best.
To each Warrior and their families; God Bless, each and every one!
To those who use their deaths in shallow shame; the Nation knows, the Nation grieves.
