Fourteen Marines, civilian killed in bombing

BAGHDAD, Iraq (CNN) -- A roadside bomb blast killed 14 Marines and a civilian interpreter Wednesday as they rode in a vehicle near Haditha, Iraq, U.S. military officials said.

I would like to say "GO TO FUCKING HELL BUSH!


I found out less than 10 minutes ago that me and my fiance's best friend's(he's currently in Kosovo) baby brother was one of the Marines murdered.

I'm so pissed right now.

Yes, it's Bush's fault that a fanatic killed those Marines. There's some good sound logic for you.

Anyway, my fraternity brother and roommate just got deployed back to Iraq for the 2nd time. Hopefully he'll be ok.

One of the young men who died on July 27th in a similar fashion was the son of the shuttle driver at the hospital system where I work. Very sad

From the Associated Press:

"Most people still see President Bush as a strong, likable leader, but the approval of his handling of the Iraq war has fallen to 38 percent, a new poll says. Fewer than half of the respondents believe he's honest."

It might be argued that the President rushed us into a war for so far unproven reasons and that those Marines wouldn't have been in harms way if that hadn't been the case.
