Five More Flags

At least five soldiers died yesterday. No citation, have CNN in the background. Took CNN 37 Minutes to report it.

The breatheless reports yesterday of Al Sadr's surrender were, and are, grossly premature. As Professor Cole explains Najaf remains a, um, Mexican Standoff. Maybe if we provide Al Sadr free chips & salsa he'll come out, you'll probably want to skip offering the margarita?

Whatever you do DON'T send in a Mariachi Band. If I had to listen to one of those too long, I'd feel suicidal and taking a few of my tormentors with me.

As I sit here, CNN just managed to do FOUR STRAIGHT MINUTES OF REPORTING on Iraq. But now back to Scott Peterson.

Remember, CNN, if the victim were WHITE, PREGNANT, and MURDERED, they are so there!
