8 Marines Dead in Iraq; Car Bomb Kills 7

By RAWYA RAGEH, Associated Press Writer

BAGHDAD, Iraq - Eight American Marines were killed in fighting west of Baghdad on Saturday, the military's bloodiest day in nearly six months. A car bomb killed at least seven people in attack on an Arab television network in the capital, and Iraqi troops fired wildly on civilian vehicles, killing at least 14 people, witnesses and hospital officials said.

The U.S. military said nine Marines were also wounded in the fighting in Anbar province west of the capital which includes the insurgent stronghold of Fallujah. The statement gave no further on how or where they were killed.

It was the most U.S. deaths on a single day since May 2, when nine U.S. troops died in separate mortar attacks and roadside bombings in Baghdad, Ramadi and Kirkuk.

In Baghdad, the car bomb blasted the offices of the Al-Arabiya television network in the upscale Mansour neighborhood, killing seven people and wounding 19, according to police and hospital officials.

Why anybody would vote for Chimp based on this fiasco is beyond me.

Cheney said this has been a brilliant operation.

2. Why do they vote for El Arbusto Stupido anyhow?

Cuz God told them to on account of abortion and gay marriage. All this war and death and poverty stuff is unimportant.

3. Cause Merica is safer

Don't you listen to the chosen one.

When he talks about his apparant dislike of terists, I have no idea if he means people that want to come and set of bombs or people that want to come and see the Grand Canyon.

4. That jingoism drives me bananas

Freedom doesn't need to ever march. Freedom just is. It is pervasively infectious.

Militarism is the antithesis of freedom. It always has been and always will be.

Arghhhhhhhhh.
