U.S. and Iraqi forces say they have killed 90 al Qaeda fighters around Baghdad during one of the biggest combined offensives against the Sunni Islamist group since the invasion of Iraq in 2003. "Ding Dong the Wolf is Dead" All of a sudden with our trickle of a surge, seems like all of a sudden, lot of good things happening. Papers are full of great news, 90 killed, 30 killed, 50 killed. MMMMM...so why didnt our 156,000 troops do any good? I believe that this is all fiction to make the lousy president look good before he is practically "kicked out" of office, as only 24% of the US even want him there and more countries around the world feel the same way. "We're making headway, but whe only have 40% of Iraq under control, Bull. With the amount of our people dieing every day, nothing is under control. When I see all those crazies lined up in a row on the ground DEAD, then I will believe that whe are making headway, HOOORAH! Other then that, stories are made up daily. Chow.

According to your data, 10% more people want Bush in office than the Democratic congress. Their approval numbers are at an historic low of 14% (3% on immigration).
With this low approval rating, how long do you feel it will be before they let us secure our borders, fight the War on Terror, or drill for and refine our own oil?
It's been over 30 years since we've been allowed to build a refinery, our drill for our own oil.
What do ya think?

MSNBC released a report tracking 140+ Journalists who provided Financial support for different campaigns. 17 of those were Republican. The OTHER 120+ were all Democrats.
So much for "honest and balanced Journalists" huh?
Oh, and it's not the surge. It's "Operation Arrowhead Ripper" One of the LARGEST US led operations to date, with incredible support from the Iraqis that are fighting to make THEIR country theirs, to DESTROY Al Qaeda, and to be able to live life without idiots like Saddam, or Al Qaeda, who kill you for no reason other than because you are alive.
But you don't hear anything about it, it's covered up by news such as "PARIS HILTON GETS IN TO CAR!!!"
OMG golly! Blech.

The "casualty" report, so diligently provided each day by Pravda. er, I mean the NY Times, is usually sourced from NON Military sources, because they do not "trust" our military. They will however trust hooded Al-Quaeda thugs, Mullahs, and anyone else with an axe to grind against the United States of America, and accept their "version" of occurrances as the gospel truth. Ooops, sorry, can't say "gospel", might offend some athiestic puke.

Body counts are junk. The only thing that matter's is breaking the other side's will or ability to fight. Everything else is nonsense. We are not doing that, so we are not winning. We are killing a lot more of them with superior weaponry. they are doing the same to us in lesser number's. But they still have the will and ability to fight, should answer your question....

The answer depends where you heard your news from. The big news channels are all liberal and don't tell the real truth about what happens over there anyway.

I do not feel the President is trying to lie to us at all due to the fact I have researched much of the war's facts on line and I have listened to people I know who have been in the war zone.
