I have a bad feeling about this weekend (Iraq)
if Bush* is speaking on Tuesday, from Fort Bragg, to cheerlead, I expect another bloody and dangerous weekend in Iraq, what better time to make a statement?

Be careful out there, everyone.

1. its that way everyday in Iraq
the only thing is that if real bad news comes out they usually defer it until Friday after 5 P.M. where people will usually not pay attention

2. What's Worse Than What's Currently Going On?
We get precious little real reliable information as to what's going on there. Our corporate media is holed up in the Green Zone and relies on second and third hand information about what's happening with the "insurgents".

We're fighting ghosts. There is no command and control to whose shooting at our troops or blowing off the car bombs. So we trust this regime to tell us who they are? The corporate media? This truly is the essence of a black war.

This country is starting to realize what a mess Iraq has become. The sheeple have yet to realize how deeply we're involved and how difficult it will be to get out now. Only then will the "whose responsible" question really be asked. It sure won't be this weekend.
