10. Tet = Bush vacation
They know Bush is vacationing. Same with the spikes around the election. They are sending a message to Bush.

It's not known yet if he was a soldier or a Marine, but more and more IED's are starting to pop up in "that other war".

14. Where's your link on that? I don't see it.
You need a link for that information.

I see 1 additional Marine killed today in Ramadi, and three Task Force Baghdad soldiers (from the 48th Brigade, Georgia National Guard) killed yesterday. Where are you getting 5 additional Marines killed today?
