  • Pictures like this break my heart. They also make me so disappointed in my fellow Americans who wouldn't tolerate such pictures of American babies.

  • How many more pictures like this will we see until someone leaves the state of denial and takes a fresh whiff of reality?

  • What's interesting to me is that there are certain Iraq photos that don't make it into Yahoo's Iraq "slideshow" of wire photos.

    Often those are the ones I find most emotionally disturbing, but usually not the bloodiest.

    This was one.

  • As you know, I lost a son. If it had been at the hands of an army -- any army, my hatred would never die, my quest for revenge would never cease. We would have been better off trying to recruit and train anti-american terrorists ourselves. The way we've been screwing things up, that would have completely erradicated the problem by now.
