#1 Golly Gee, Dan. What a waste of time. This is a mess, a hit piece, a hash of everything Rooters could find to throw in that fits their agenda.

It requires massive editing to make it into something that follows the headline - or just throw it out. As it is, it's just shit.

#3 Be sure to check Fred's post further down the page ('U.S.: Ramadi battle kills 100-plus insurgents') - something that seem's to have been left out of this report.

#4 Wow. That was the worse article I have seen in a long time. I dont mean that it was a hit piece or such but the simple structure and flow. I would have got a D in college if I submitted a printed tolliet paper like that.

#6 The author is the Reuters "Baghdad Bureau Chief". He has previosuly claimed that we whacked some of his guys. But I'm sure he remains objective.

#7 Drive by media spraying fire on the dry leaves.
I'll add a thousand to the bounty on their heads.

#8 Whatever happened to the commitment of our "allies" (Germany, France) to train the Iraqi forces. Haven't heard anything about that.

#9 Supposedly they (the Germans, not sure about the French) do training, but not within Iraq. It is a "face" thing, you see.
