2. Probably sending them to Afghanistan.

Or sending equivalent numbers that way while these particular ones go home and get their yearly quota of sanity.

3. Thats almost half of em.

Pressure from military chiefs for an early and significant cut in the 7,500 British troops in Iraq is also motivated by extreme pressure being placed on soldiers and those responsible for training them.

4. Perfect! Guess the poodle is jumping off the lap, eh?

Hope he left plenty of fleas and perhaps some worms.
How about the timing? ROFL!!!
Just as Bush prepares to try to sell Americans
a burnt piece of the Brooklyn bridge.

You KNOW that he would be the Primo of all primo targets.

8. What is this?
