2. Must be a new policy. Perhaps they traded - more Iraq coverage for |
|
less Rove. Or perhaps * hopes showing the war will take the heat of him, his master & the soon to be pardon.

4. The pictures are pretty tame |
|
They ran with some very sanitized photos, imo.

5. Very true, but it being Time, and covering it even this much seems good. |

Did they ever show that Iraqi family of kids whose parents were shot in the car at a check point? The one with the little kids with blood on their hands. I still think that picture could become a rallying point, rather like the napalmed girl in the road for VietNam.

3. I'll second that. Wow. |

It really puts things in perspective: Bush's "pep talks" are about to take a nose-dive.
His ratings will be in the 20's after this comes out. (going to the store to buy it).
