BAGHDAD, Iraq (AP) -- Iraqi authorities discovered at least 87 corpses - men shot to death execution-style - as Iraq edged closer to open civil warfare. Twenty-nine of the bodies, dressed only in underwear, were dug out of a single grave Tuesday in a Shiite neighborhood of Baghdad.
The bloodshed appeared to be retaliation for a bomb and mortar attack in the Sadr City slum that killed at least 58 people and wounded more than 200 two days earlier.
GOI: That's four bodies every hour for 24 hours!!

I should never have started commenting on your blog, but here I go again,...(Sigh)
"as Iraq edged closer to open civil warfare." (Civil war is an assertion, not a statement of fact)
"The bloodshed appeared to be retaliation for a bomb and mortar attack in the Sadr City..." (conjecture only)
No wonder, James, why you seem so out of sorts these last several months. You believe the ungrounded assertions of the AP as news. Do you really think that by being a conduit for these "editorial" agencies gives your blog any clout? Honestly, I think you and your fellow libs are hoping for a civil war in order to add another reason to impeach Bush.
I say bring it on.
