3 GIs killed during small-arms attack in Iraq


BAGHDAD - Three American soldiers have been killed in a small-arms fire attack in northern Iraq, the U.S. military said on Wednesday.

A brief statement said the soldiers died Wednesday in Hawija, a restive Sunni Arab town about 150 miles north of Baghdad.

The soldiers' names are being withheld until their families are notified.

2. It very much has influenced my vote
I originally supported Dennis Kucinich. John Edwards apology about the IWR was enough for me in 2004 and 2008 when DK dropped out, and when he went there was no choice but Obama for me. Hillary just could never get the words out and I couldn't accept that.

4. 90% are not
That's why its always our responsibility to speak the truth as many times in as many ways as we can. Even if it's just on an internet board someone might accidentily find by a google.
