BAGHDAD, Iraq -- Four U.S. soldiers and a Marine were killed in attacks in Baghdad and Iraq's western Anbar province, the military said Monday. The five deaths took place in separate attacks Sunday, the military said in a statement.

Non-serving Fred Kagan thanks you for your service to his reputation.

Meanwhile, Commander Bunnypants, is certainly master of his infantile domain:

At the nadir of his presidency, George W. Bush is looking for answers. One at a time or in small groups, he summons leading authors, historians, philosophers and theologians to the White House to join him in the search.

Over sodas and sparkling water, he asks his questions: What is the nature of good and evil in the post-Sept. 11 world? What lessons does history have for a president facing the turmoil I'm facing? How will history judge what we've done? Why does the rest of the world seem to hate America? Or is it just me they hate?

As usual, it's either him or America...

How about your failed policies and war mongering you jackass?

People do not "HATE" America. They "HATE" some of our policies, with a special emphasis on your policies. Bringing in a bunch of British conservative historians, who miss the imperial age when they had a chance to exploit the brown people, to kiss your ass isn't going to make it better for you.

Your father, and certainly Bill Clinton can go just about anywhere and be greeted warmly, you? You're going to need a brigade of Secret Service protection the rest of your life. And it isn't because you personally are a knob, it is because you have governed as a knob.
