Taliban stages rare, direct attack on U.S. base.

A day after Afghanistan Prime Minister Hamid Karzai declared the Taliban “defeated” and “hiding,” “a group of 75 Taliban militants tried to overrun a U.S.-led coalition base in southern Afghanistan on Tuesday, a rare frontal attack that left more than 20 militants dead, the coalition said in a statement.”

eugenics. Just weeding out the real dimbulbs.

I don't know why Bush insists on calling these people "cold-blooded killers". I mean... that's so Cheney. Why doesn't he call them what they are? Ignorant idiots who want a return to the dark ages.
