Taliban down 2 Yank choppers

WASHINGTON - Afghan insurgents downed two U.S. military choppers on
Sunday, bringing the year's total to four, in what experts call the
"Iraqization" of an escalating war with Al Qaeda and the Taliban.

"Initial indications reveal that enemy fire caused two CH-47 Chinook
helicopters involved in offensive operations in southern Afghanistan
to make hard landings Sunday," military commanders said in a
statement yesterday.

One chopper forced down near Kandahar resulted in five injured U.S.
troops. The second was hit about 50 miles north at Tarin Kowt, but
limped to a base. Both choppers were flying over Taliban strongholds
where fighting has raged this year.

The shootdowns alarm Afghan analysts, who also are worried by an
increase in roadside and suicide bombings this year, which have
dwarfed 2004's total.

"You are seeing the tactics from Iraq being transferred to
Afghanistan," said ex-Defense Intelligence Agency analyst Julie
Sirrs. "The \[enemy\] has had a resurgence this year."

Yep...we're training 'em in Iraq and they're putting their skills to
work against us elsewhere.

Yep. No reported casualties.

But how about these reports that you did not report Harry:

Harry has his websearch engine set to "Advanced: Doom and Gloom

Now, that is funny.
This is funny, too, right?

Nope, but is not what the funny comment was about. I guess your brain
has slipped and forgot that.


I don't pay that much attention to the comments here of the right-wing
mentally challenged.




Bwaaaahhaaaaaahaaaaa.

There is a fair amount of anti-Americanism being spouted by America's
enemies within.
A strong leader is needed to resolve our border, job export, fuel price,
over spending, and these fifth column activities. The answers are
simple; enforce existing laws and punish employers who hire illegals,
high tariffs for imported manufactured goods, imposing excess profits
taxes on oil companies, and backing strong conservatives for elective
office. Joe Lieberman could be the strong leader the Dems need. The
Republicans have a slew of conservative personalities who could do it.

The word is "Kevinesque", and doesn't apply here.

Surely if you love your country (and we all should), then you must
also love the Constitution and Bill of Rights.

And you do, right?
