CNN) -- Chilling scenes from a videotape made by insurgents show the work of snipers in Iraq, targeting and killing American troops, taking them down with a single bullet from a high-powered rifle. The graphic video of 10 sniper attacks was obtained by CNN -- through intermediaries -- from the Islamic Army of Iraq, one of the most active insurgent organizations in Iraq. In one scene, U.S. soldiers mingle among Iraqi civilians on a city street as a U.S. Humvee with a gunner in its turret stands guard nearby. From a distance, possibly hundreds of yards away, a sniper watches for his opportunity to strike as a fellow insurgent operates a camera to capture the video for propaganda purposes. In the video, street sounds mix with male Arabic voices as the sniper and his spotter talk off-camera. "People are around them," warns the spotter, who seems to be operating the video camera. "Want me to find another place?" "No, no," comes the reply, "give me a moment." And then, the crack of gunfire is heard and the soldier in the turret slumps forward. "Allahu Akbar (God is Great)!" is the exclamation as the sniper's vehicle starts and they slip away.

For a moment there I was tempted to borrow a phrase from Tom Daschel and say that I was "deeply saddened" about the direction of our party. :)

I think I saw that video six months ago. But CNN is just now releasing it a couple of weeks before the election? Scumbucket bastards. It'll backfire on them and the GOP will emerge an even bigger winner because of it.
Satire is one thing. Actively and cynically heaping doubt and shame on your country for profit and politial gain during a time of war is something quite different.
