Media silent as 14 troops killed in the last 2 days

They're talking about a missing pregnant woman instead.

Also, a court case about a neighbor who sued over two little girls screaming in their backyard pool.

And if you go to the beach, make sure you watch your children when they're playing in the sand, because 20 children have died due to sand holes over the last 22 years. (I'm not making this up)

The mainstream media: Distraction for the masses.

Its getting close to the weekend

and conservative republicans are getting ready for the big barbecue. No sense in spoiling their plans with more bad news from Iraq. Besides, all those troops are volunteers and more people die in car wrecks. Go ahead, try to have conservative values. It'll make ya sick.

6. I caught an MSN "BS" report this AM that

mentioned three GI deaths. But the chipper reporter pointed out that the US military was killing lots of those dreaded "Al Qaeda" in Iraq types, so it's all good.
