Woodward's book is published by Simon & Schuster, which last time I checked was owned by Viacom. This free PR for a major competitor is mighty neighborly of MSNBC...
Woodward claims there is an attack on US troops every 15 minutes but he's purposely trying to deceive readers because it's incidents every 15 minutes throughout Iraq, not just American troops, and it includes single shots from just street thugs. Funny thing about how this is reported since in America there is a violent crime every 6 minutes.
Where have these fruitcakes been, some of US are very well aware we are at war? Seems as though this is just another facet of their plotted and planned reenactment of Vietnam... a daily body count.
Sure are a lot October Surprise attempts by the libs.....
Two days early and 4 million votes short.
Detail Detail Details! We can't be bothered by these silly little details, not when there's the Cheney/Bush/Rove/Rumsfeld/Halliburton war machine to defeat.
Wait, they're competitors, aren't they?
I was listening to a segment on WTOP (DC area) this morning and the guy they were interviewing (Face the Nation - CBS) was positively giddy about the timing of the release of this book. They don't even bother to disguise their biases anymore.
STFU or Talk to the hand Bobward!
Speaking of body counts did you see this?

CAIRO, Egypt - The new leader of al-Qaida in Iraq said in an audio message posted on a Web site Thursday that more than 4,000 foreign insurgent fighters have been killed in Iraq since the U.S.-led invasion in 2003. It was believed to be the first major statement from insurgents in Iraq about their losses.
"The blood has been spilled in Iraq of more than 4,000 foreigners who came to fight," said the man, who identified himself as Abu Hamza al-Muhajir - also known as Abu Ayyub al-Masri - the leader of al-Qaida in Iraq. The voice could not be independently identified.
How many tours of Iraq has Bobby done? Is he a decorated wounded war hero?
No, but he's seen Band Of Brothers...twice. And that's almost the samething.
I'm getting a strange sense of déjà vu.
Well .. the dems keep beating the same dead horse .. Bush lied .. but now that Bubba has blown up and the Path to 9/11 has exposed more of the truth .. they've changed their message to Bush's "deception".
What deception ..?? The terrorists didn't really want to kill us ..??
WE MUST GET MORE OF THESE HORRIBLE DEMS OUT OF OFFICE. THEY ARE GOING TO CAUSE THE ENEMY TO BELIEVE WE ARE TOO WEAK TO DEFEND OURSELVES.
Since the book was probably completed in June, (just a guess) how are the facts and figures reflective of what's happening in Iraq now?
(Dan Rather voice)The story is true........
The story is fake but accurate.........
Uh -huh
I keep pointing to people
Antietam/Sharpsburg Casualties: 26,134 (12,410 Union and 13,724 Confederate (That would be in less than 12 hours!)
Battle of Gettysburg
Date: July 1-3, 1863
Casualties: 51,112 (23,049 Union and 28,063 Confederate)
53,402 in WWI (Note: that would be 1917-18)
Do I have to mention WWII, Korea, Viet-Nam? I didn't think so.
My point is as wars go this one is bloodless. And yes that's a good thing
