Suicide Bombings Up…
…since 2001. This is what Bush calls “success“.
Of 1,840 incidents in the past 25 years, more than 86 percent have occurred since 2001, and the highest annual numbers have occurred in the past four years. The sources who provided the data to The Washington Post asked that they not be identified because of the sensitivity of the tallies.
The data show more than 920 suicide bombings in Iraq and more than 260 in Afghanistan, including some that killed scores of U.S. troops. All occurred after the U.S. invasions of Afghanistan in 2001 and Iraq in 2003.
McCain Makes $405K?

(You know, cuz why would you?)
“Supporting Our Troops”
How much more “support” must our troops be subjected to?
It’s stories like this that make me lean more “bullet” than “ballot”. How is the democratic party so stupid as to still be allowing themselves to be painted as anti-troop when these fascists have such callous disregard for our service men and woman?
The only thing worse than committing this crime against our veterans, is standing by and watching it in silent complicity (that goes for you too, America).
Wait, What?
Preznit says next attack probably coming from Afghanistan/Pakistan.
So naturally, we’re going to focus on Iraq.
You know, because he listens to his commanders on the ground (as long as they stick to the script).
