4. RIP. May is a fine month again

20 dead in 7 days already

RIP to Maresciallo Aiutante s.UPS Enrico Frassanito as well, an Italian soldier who died even though Italy will withdraw. I guess it was too late for him.

ROME, May 7 (Reuters) - An Italian soldier seriously wounded by a roadside bomb in southern Iraq last month has died, Italian news agencies said on Sunday. Four other soldiers -- three Italians and a Romanian -- were killed on the spot or died shortly after the bomb exploded on April 27, ripping through their convoy. The attack took place on a road southwest of Nassiriya, the city where Italian soldiers in Iraq are based, and highlighted divisions within Romano Prodi's government-in-waiting over the timing of a withdrawal of Italian troops.

5. One more for the pile!

Grass Bush

Pile the bodies high in Austerlitz and Waterloo Iraq
Shovel them under and let me work--
I am the grass; bush; I cover all.

And pile them high in Gettyburg Baghdad
And pile them high in Ypres and Vedum Mossoul and Al Fallaujah

Two years, ten years, and passengers ask the conductor:
What place is this?

I am the grass bush.
Let me work.

Carl Sandburg


Support the war - Donate a Son a daughter
The GOP working for a better America
God Bless America

6. This is insanity

The rest of the country, and the MSM, need to wake up from their comas and protest, shut the country down, or whatever it takes, to get out of Iraq NOW! The situation is getting worse by the day. The idiot squatting in the Oval Office is salivating over the chance to use nukes on Iran. We can no longer permit a sociopath to play out his delusions using other people's lives and continue to watch the Mideast erupt into complete chaos. We don't have the luxury of permitting this wretched man to fulfill his own grandiose dreams of being a "Wartime President" while the world goes up in flames.

He needs to be impeached and convicted, and his whole band of criminals should be tried at the Hague, along with him. It's insanity for our country to stay helpless as he destroys our own country along with Iraq, Iran, and whoever else his twisted mind tells him to attack. He and his cabal have caused so much death and misery worldwide, that letting him continue on the course he's on would be the very definition of treason. Yes, we have to do it the proper way, but we have to put enough pressure on our politicians to stand up to him, and shut this war down. He belongs behind bars, not in the White House.

Long Time Gone Lyrics

It's been a long time comin'
It's goin' to be a long time gone.
And it appears to be a long,
Appears to be a long,
Appears to be a long time,
Yes, a long, long, long, long time,
Before the dawn.

Turn, turn any corner.
Hear, you must hear what the people say,
You know there's something that's goin' on around here,
That surely, surely, surely won't stand the light of day.
And it appears to be a long, (yes it does)
Appears to be a long,
Appears to be a long time,
Such a long, long, time,
Before the dawn.

Speak out, you got to speak out against the madness
You got to speak your mind,
If you dare.
But don't, no don't no try to get yourself elected.
If you do you had better cut your hair.
And it appears to be a long, (yes it does)
Appears to be a long
Appears to be a long time,
Such a long, long, long, long time,
Before the dawn.

It's been a long time comin',
It's going to be a long time gone.
But you know, the darkest hour,
Is always, always just before the dawn.
And it appears to be a long,
Appears to be a long,
Appears to be a long time,
Such a long, long, long, long time before the dawn

- Crosby Stills Nash Young
