One bombing a day

February
28

Lots of the liberal blogs have been making much of Laura Bush’s comments Monday night on Larry King Live:


“Many parts of Iraq are stable now,” she said. “But, of course, what we see on television is the one bombing a day that discourages everyone.”


Of course that one bombing a day has been killing many Iraqis. And as AMERICAblog.com wrote, Reuters reported two bombings on Monday and one was an apparent assassination attempt on Iraq’s Shi’ite vice president. Six were killed. Then in Ramadi, a suicide bomber blew up an ambulance. That attack killed 14, including women and children.


You can’t know what’s going to happen in Iraq in the end, but that’s more than television focusing on one bombing a day, however much the rest of the country might be stable.
