Fuck. This. Noise.
Blah, blah, blah. Wright, Wright, Wright. Bullshit, bullshit, bullshit.

Fierce clashes kill 45 in Baghdad's Sadr City

15 hours ago

BAGHDAD (AFP) — US and Iraqi forces have killed at least 45 insurgents in fierce battles with Shiite fighters in eastern Baghdad over the past 24 hours, the US military said on Monday.

Three US soldiers were also killed in east Baghdad on Monday when they were hit by rocket or mortar fire, the military said.

Earlier, the military said seven "criminals" were killed in the flashpoint Sadr City district of the Iraqi capital when US forces called up an aerial weapons team (AWT) and a M1A2 Abrams Tank after soldiers came under attack with small-arms fire.

Another 38 militiamen were killed on Sunday, including 22 in one of the heaviest clashes in weeks, when militiamen blasted Baghdad's fortified Green Zone with rockets and mortars, taking advantage of a blinding dust storm that grounded US attack helicopters.

The biggest clash in the day-long battles came at dusk on Sunday when "a large group of criminals engaging with small-arms fire" attacked a security forces checkpoint, a US military statement said.

7. Our beloved country would never do such a thing
Everything has changed now that a black man said the US does bad things.

How fucked up is that.

2. And once again
It's the Wright thing that gets the attention on most of the news channels! I really think the MSM is using Wright to avoid the bad news in Iraq.

12. They are using it for far more than that.
Killing a few birds with one stone....knock down Obama, and not have to talk about more important stuff like food riots, the Iraq war, torture approved by the President, gas prices and food prices rising at breakneck speed, etc, etc. Might as well because so many Americans have been in stupid mode ever since they elected a failed actor to play the part of President.
