Kimmitt speak

This guy is whacko. And a liar. But I guess that doesn't really make him stand out in the crowd, does it?

US Brigadier General Mark Kimmitt, a military spokesperson, denied on Saturday the raid had hit a wedding party. "There may have been some kind of celebration. Bad people have celebrations too. Bad people have parties too," Kimmitt said.

Well, "bad people" have weddings, too, I assume.

Jeezus.

Video footage broadcast on Arab television on Monday showed scenes from an Iraqi wedding party where local people say US forces killed about 40 people in an air raid.

The US military has insisted it destroyed a safe house for foreign fighters near the Syrian border and has denied finding evidence of any wedding. It has said all but six of about 40 people killed were men, most of them of fighting age.


....but hey, do what you want....you will anyway.
