Police: 20 headless bodies found
Damn the MSM, damn them all to hell, how DARE they make up these stories??
I mean, wasn’t it just a day or so back that the White House and DoD were telling us how things were going so well in Iraq?? 29 Iraqis blown up, 20 more found decapitated, I’d hate to see what Iraq would look like on a BAD day…
Oh, wait, I forgot, that’s the way it rolls now, the White House runs off at the mouth about how successful they’ve been in Iraq and instead of wiping the insurgents off the face of the earth, they apparently leave more than enough of them in place to once again make them look rather foolish for their premature announcement, again…
Maybe a wounded General will get some attention, maybe we’ll have an ACTIVE DUTY General Officer come forward and say the things that need to be said concerning the reality of Iraq, but what the hell, even if he did it wouldn’t matter, it would be written off as ‘an axe to grind’ and the fact that he’s not a COMBAT General, he’s Corps of Engineers, and that’s all different you know…
Yeah, sure it is…

The other soldier was treated and released.
Dorko was traveling Monday morning with a private security team belonging to Erinys International when the attack occurred in northern Baghdad.
If ya gotta travel, make Blackwater USA your travel agent…
Headless bodies..? Hey, Fred was unreachable for a day or so…
29 blown up, 20 decapitated, 49 total right after an all is well type announcement…
IF I was an Iraqi, every time an American politician said something good about Iraq, I’d barricade myself in my house and open fire on ANYONE coming up the steps….
I do notice some Iraqi’s are starting to see the real enemy, it wasn’t Americans that cut those heads off, it wasn’t Americans that blew up 29 people, it has taken 5 years for the retards to notice, but HOPEFULLY (Doubtfully) they will rise to the occasion….
You know as well as I do Fred, we are going to have troops in Iraq for a LONG time, no matter who wins the election, or any promises they make…. Unfortunate but it is a fact.
You would think after 5 years and all the death that happens right after Bush speaks, he would STFU and let the military announce the news…he’s already FUBAR’d the Iraq situation, it is only better because he’s got a LOT better leaders in their now, let em do their jobs so they can get home.
Hey Fred, this story appears to be in question, the 20 headless bodies part anyway.

Now, I am skeptical about anything the media, or the administration says, so I am not calling the story bogus yet..
