meanwhile, over there...

The Surge continues to not work:

Nationwide, the number of people killed or found dead on Wednesday was 233, which equaled the highest death toll since The Associated Press began recording daily nationwide deaths in May 2005.

In the US, 32 people get killed and the media becomes obsessed. 32 dead is a good day in Baghdad. Iraq is a like the Massacre at Virginia Tech™ every single day. No one gives a shit. Even when it's Americans dying.
