They want to move them to the United States within 72 hours.

One of the Iraqi soldiers was injured. But of course, ABC isn't reporting it.

Wrong. ABC, on it's opening segment this morning, made note that there was an Iraqi soldier injured and they also reported on the soldier's condition.

Good bar room talk but it is not a universal sentiment.

Soldiers, for the most part, care that the country cares. One of those ways is for news organizations to get their stories.

Imus just said they missed the news conference and there was nothing really new.

I'm watching ABC; they all seem shaken.

Those are very serious injuries, swelling around the brain.

Their helmets must have been knocked off at some time during the hit.

Woodruff and his wife are good friends with the late David Blooms' wife.

I can imagine Mrs Bloom is re-living parts of her husbands passing now too.

Okay, it took 24 hours for ABC to report that one of the Iraqis in the convoy was also injured. Is ABC reporting his condition? Is ABC reporting about his treatment?

Can't you control yourself on a thread like this? You're embarassing yourself.

As for Bennett, I still haven't gotten over him running away from Hillsdale College when they asked for his help in finding a new president about five years ago.

LOL. You have to be kidding! If you can stomach all the crap on Imus and then find Bill Bennett intolerable, well, you do have a different taste. You think that former President Bush is your lodestone??? Sure, anything you say.

If you were really concerned about Hillsdale and the state of our culture, you would be more concerned about the corrosive cultural impression caused by the daily Imus juvenalia [ he never developed beyond high school prankster] and his constant exhaltation of the lies of the likes of jon meachem, jonathon alter, brokaw, schieffer, kerry, dodd, biden, chris matthews, et cetera ad nauseam.

I did not find post 687 to be embarassing to anyone... other than ABC.

It is horrible that this happened to him but this is a war and there are risks going to the war zone.

I saw the story on one of the MSM's but did anybody see what Bob Woodruff was doing before he came to ABC? He was teaching law in China? This makes absolutely no sense to me.
