Faces of the Fallen: U.S. Fatalities in Iraq

The only thing that breaks my heart more than seeing these faces is seeing their ages: 18, 19, 20 years old. So young.

I have to wonder: Does President Bush take the time to look at the faces of the soldiers who have died for his war in Iraq?

He should.

Maybe he just doesn’t have time. After all, it’s very important that he makes his 37th speech in Bumfuck, PA. They’re a “battlegound” state, you know.

Since he’s so busy, I was thinking maybe I’d help him out by sending him some photos of the boys who died …

One … photo … at … a … time.

Want to join me? You can find the photos here.

Email each photo individually to president@whitehouse.gov.

And what the hell … CC: Dick Cheney too.

Censored 2005: The Top 25 Censored Media Stories of 2003-2004

Censorship is awesome.

Without censorship, we’d never know the details of Britney’s wedding to Kevin Federline. Instead, we’d be all tied up reading about how the U.S. is developing lethal new viruses for biological warfare.

If our headlines were tied up with news about how electronic voting machines could lead to widespread voter fraud and manipulation, how would we find out what J.Lo wore to the Grammy’s?

Thanks to censorship, I don’t have to be all bummed out that our troops are being poisoned by depleted uranium. Instead, I can read about that wacky Jessica Simpson’s latest verbal gaffe. She didn’t know Chicken of the Sea was tuna …?

LOL.

Transcript of bin Ladin’s speech

My first impression of this speech was not, “These are the words of a soulless murderer.” Nor was it, “This guy is a fundamentalist nutbag.”

No. My first impression?

This guy saw Fahrenheit 9-11.

Consider the following excerpts:

“Bush claims that we hate freedom.If so, then let him explain why did not strike — for example — Sweden.”

“So he took dictatorship and suppression of freedoms to his son and they named it the Patriot Act under the pretences of fighting terrorism.”

“[I]t seemed to him that occupying himself by talking to the little girl about the goat … was more important than occupying himself with the planes and their butting of the skyscrapers.”

It’s weird hearing an internationally wanted terrorist including little tidbits like these in his talking points.

Are people in the caves of Afghanistan really buzzing about our president reading My Pet Goat while they attacked our country?

How embarrassing.

Iraq death toll ’soared post-war’

Who needs rape rooms and mass graves when you and your family can be atomized right in the comfort of your own living room?

With Saddam, you’d have to go to a prison or a torture chamber to be brutally killed. But America’s all about convenience. We bring the brutal murder of your loved ones right to your front door. Or through your roof, depending on the accuracy of our laser-guided 2000 pound bomb.
