The Wedding That Wasn't But Was

Last week, the military rushed to insist that the 45 people or so killed in the bombing of what the Iraqis called a wedding party was really a meeting of senior Iraqi resistance leaders.

But the AP has video of the wedding taking place just before everyone was blown to bits. Funny, I heard not one damned thing about this in all the news programming I watched, listened to, and read today until I saw the AP piece tonight.

Of course, as Rush Lamehog would say, "Nothing worse than what you'd find at a Brittney Spears concert or a frat party." Senator Inhofe would be outraged at the Iraqi survivor outrage.
