Ten U.S. Troops Killed in Iraq

Ten U.S. troops killed in Iraq:
In a deadly day of violence, 10 U.S. service members died in Iraq on Tuesday, the U.S. Military said.

Deadliest Month in 2 years:
For the U.S. military, October's death toll is on a pace that, if continued, would make the month the deadliest for coalition forces since January 2005, when 107 U.S. troops died.

The Republican response to the terrible casualties in Iraq: Accuse Democrats of being soft on terrorism:
"The Democratic plan would gingerly pamper the terrorists who plan to destroy innocent Americans' lives. While House Republicans work to deal with these dangers like establishing Terrorist Tribunals that will prosecute enemies of America, Democrat Leader Pelosi and 159 of her colleagues voted in favor of NEW rights for terrorists.

Is the terror bill just signed a pardon plan for Bush?:
For a variety of reasons, Democrats are criticizing the military tribunals bill that President Bush signed into law on Tuesday -- but it's the "stealth pardon" for "war crimes" allegedly committed by President Bush and Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld that upsets one Democrat the most.

Now we are fighting the iraqi police:
The Iraqi government removed the country’s two most senior police commanders from their posts on Tuesday, in the first broad move against the top leadership of Iraq's unruly special police forces.
