Conversely, he said, there are more drive-by shootings. "We think that's another way, though much less effective, to keep up violence," the source, who spoke on condition of anonymity, told a small group of journalists.

Baghdad is becoming less like a war zone and more like a typical capital city....such as Washington, DC.

(Tongue planted firmly in cheek.)

Didnt't we have the bloodiest few months in a long time..

No, the media has just been twisting it that way because it suits their agenda.

The attack ratio country-wide has been dropping over the last few months.

Alegra beat me to it and is correct in #22.

Have I flamed you in the past? Do you ever read the daily roundup and news from the ME on FR. There is good stuff, along with the bad, on those threads. Great photos of our heroes...they're wonderful. I wouldn't spend 30 seconds reading or watching the lsm to get my news on Iraq.

You can't get more accurate coverage than that. ;-)

(The rest of the story:)

Location: Body Parts Re-assembly Plant, somewhere out there.

Foreman: ‘Hey, Jake! Wake up Guiseppi. Another order just came in.’
Jake: ‘I’ll get right on it, boss.’
Gus: ‘Whuzzup? (Yawn)
Jake: ‘Allah just sent over another basket case and we need to borrow the ‘nose’ again.’
Gus: ‘Sheesh! Not another one? Pinnochio is getting fed up with lending out his sniffer.’
Jake: ‘Can’t help it, Jake. The Osiris Curse, you know.
Gus: ‘Yeah, I know, I know. Somebody oughtta tell them dumb suckers about it before they volunteer.’
Jake: ‘I agree. But hey! The virgins don’t mind.’

They likely hold a fundraising bakesale in the lobby of the NY Times soon, to try to keep the insurgency afloat.

Americans expected Bush to fight it out in Iraq to the bitter end. I wish we could press on to Iran, but with all the bad press on Abu 'Grab', and all the hype about how this amazing success is some kind of quagmire, I can understand if he doesn't. But let's not forget FDR's Nazi Quagmire. Americans expected Bush to fight it out in Iraq to the bitter end.

But let's not forget FDR's Nazi Quagmire. What is FDR's exit strategy for stopping the violence of nazis, neo-nazis, and their offspring: the skinheads?
