Before we start our work day, let's honor the 55 vicims of the London transit bombs with one minute of silence. In the interest of equal time, we'll also remain silent for a proportional 97 seconds for the 89 Iraqis killed by that suicide fuel truck bomber. Oh, yes. Thanks, Ahmed, for reminding me to also acknowledge the 100,00o Afghans and Iraqis killed by our forces silence 200. Ok, then... that comes to 1,818 minutes of silence. Which is 30 hours. What the heck- 30 hours is a work-week. Go home; see you in a week. The war on hypocrisy rocks. Woman: Empathy alert! We killed 17 Afghans while looking for 10 Americans.
