| #4 But, we elected republicans to get us out of that quagmire, Vietnam. Let's stick with republicans until we destroy the MSM. |

| #3 You got all the information necessary to meet the media narrative. Another pointless death. It's a quagmire. Another Viet nAm. We need to cut and run, or at least elect left-wing Democrats. |

| #2 It's starting to really irk me that these reporters can't provide the minimum amount of information for us to make sense of what is happening. How about give at least a clue as to WHY he was targeted. Do these guys stuck on their barstools just think Muslims all look alike or what? Was he a Sunni? Was he a Shia? Any clue as to why he was offed? I swear these guys don't do anything more than call from the hotel on cell phones to get death stats from some official death stat office. Jeesh - just come back here. You can probably get the same info from NY for 3cents a minute. It be cheaper than one round of your drinks. |
