Feinstein CronyismFollow

You're trying to spin a huge web of conspiracy with NOTHING as proof.

That's exactly what i'm talking about.

I'm still waiting for any of you liberals to actually address the fact that Feinstein is a money grubbing ***** who is using the mortgage crisis to line her own families pockets.

On Wednesday, five people in Salaheddin province were killed in a suicide bombing, and a police officer was killed in Baghdad in a hand grenade attack. Also, an American soldier died of wounds suffered while conducting a patrol in eastern Baghdad.

The violence comes as the Obama administration is working to withdraw American combat troops from the country's urban areas by June 30 and eventually remove all troops from the country by the end of 2011 in accordance with the security agreement the United States and Iraq reached last year.

However, the top U.S. commander in Iraq, Gen. Raymond Odierno, told CNN on Wednesday that the Iraqi government may decide to allow boots on the ground in some urban areas past June.

"From everything I know about it, it is a very sweet deal and went to somebody who is less than qualified in dealing with foreclosed residential properties. Their expertise is in commercial real estate," said Cynthia Kenner, a Colorado real estate agent who specializes in selling bank-owned residential properties and last year helped sell more than 600 foreclosed properties.

"This clearly gives the appearance of a conflict of interest," said Kent Cooper, a former federal regulator who specializes in government ethics and disclosures. "To maintain the people's trust in government, it is incumbent on a legislator to take the extra steps necessary to ensure that when she introduces any legislation that it does not cause people to question her motives or the business activities of her spouse."

Joph,



I agree, then again they did mention previous years as a way to blunt the effect of having to admit violence has gone up the last month. If you're going to compare anything it should focus on the recent months attacks compared with attacks this same time period the last couple of years. Why didn't they do that?

Odierno said there have been a couple of high-profile violent events this month, but the number of incidents hasn't gone up. He said he is pleased with security progress.

Locked,



Are you that stupid? What am I saying of course you are. Apparently you don't realize that winter and spring are two separate seasons. That's why you compare the spring attacks now with spring attacks from last year. Comparing attacks that occur in the spring with those that occur in the winter is the height of stupidity, unless of course you're selling an agenda.

Locked,

I'd like you to show me where in that article it compares march attacks of this year to the previous 2 or 3.
