1. It does make me ill that they are trying to rate this down.

(fix your headline, you're missing a word).

I HATE how the soldier's deaths are hidden way deep into the news pages... they don't even rate front page coverage, though they have given their lives to our Country.

4. It makes me sick with rage how freepers vote these stories down

to hide the bloody truth of their cowardly lies.

"Support the troops," you fucking hypocrites!

9. Anything that contradicts bushco's "Marching to Freedom" bullshit

must be hidden...even if it's our own troops.
To any freeper lurkers who see this post...I don't know how you can live with yourselves, you bottom-feeding cowards. How's about instead of trying to hide the stories of the war dead, go pick up the weapons they can no longer carry and join your preznit's "March to Freedom"?

7. Thanks...I'd just C & P'ed the original headline

to stay within the rules, and now I see Yahoo has changed it to read "Attacks Kill 2 U.S. Soldiers in Iraq".
Appreciate the 'heads up' as I hadn't noticed it.:)

6. I don't understand this rating system at yahoo.

What's the point of it? I don't think they should allow internet users to decide which story is top rated.

P.S. May those two soldiers (and others before them) R.I.P.

10. Yeah, the rating should just be on number of votes...

The stories with the most votes get rated higher than the stories with fewer votes, regardless of the actual voting average.
