Surge Success Update: At Least 46 Killed in Iraq Attacks

That's right, we're STILL in Iraq

snip~Three Car Bombs Kill at Least 46 in Iraq

BAGHDAD, Dec. 12 -- Three powerful car bombs exploded one after the other in a southern provincial capital on Wednesday, killing at least 46 and injuring 149, the most devastating attack in the nation since August, police said.

The attack in Amarah, in Maysan province, was believed to be its first mass bombing since the U.S.-led invasion in 2003. The area is considered one of the country's safest, and the bombings shattered a hopeful, if brittle, lull in Iraq's violence.

1. MSBNC today: Surge is working, people not concerned about Iraq..
Immigration is now the most important issue. I guess they've missed the last three days of "slight UPTICK" in violence in Iraq. Either that, or they're surging right into the Republican spin of this election.. that Iraq is off the table as an issue and we must elect a Republican to get these nasty illegals out of our country. Truly sickening.

3. Exactly how Bush/Cheney/Rove like it
More money, more political BS about "strong on defense" and another day closer to when we will never leave before the oil runs out.
