Al-Qaeda thanks you, Mr. Murtha.

Bombers kill 74 at two mosques in Iraq

BAGHDAD, Iraq (AP) — Suicide bombers killed 74 worshippers at two Shiite mosques near the Iranian border Friday, while a pair of car bombs targeting a Baghdad hotel housing Western journalists killed eight Iraqis.

The suicide attackers targeted the Sheik Murad mosque and the Khanaqin Grand Mosque in Khanaqin, 90 miles northeast of Baghdad, as dozens of people were attending Friday prayers, police said. The police command said 74 people were killed and 75 wounded in the largely Kurdish town.

At sunset, dozens of people were still searching the rubble of the three-story Khanaqin Grand Mosque. As the men dug, 12-year-old Sarkhel Akram collected copies of the Quran, the Muslim holy book, then she kissed them and put them away.

Peter,

blood oath to make President Bush look as bad as Clinton made himself look. That's like comparing a chicken to an eagle. I'm sure you know which party is which.

Leaders lead despite the risk. Critics criticize regardless of the cost to themselves That's a good way for one to get egg on his face.

I'm not into investments, and prefer to go the safer way to make money grow. Being disgusted with politics doesn't mean that I don't have a good time verbally smashing heads of liberals, because they are so stupid, and do not know that liberalism is the first step of socialism, and communism. Neither of those has ever succeeded since time began.

Both of the major parties are not doing the right things, but considering what they basically stand for, I must vote Republican.

I like your easy going way of posting because it reminds me that it can be done. I have had little success with keeping my cool in a heated debate.
