Iraq's Abu Ghraib prison was fraught with danger hours before the deadly
ambush of a truck convoy known as the Good Friday Massacre, former company
truck drivers told Democratic senators Monday.

Big deal. So did I. Didn't you? Did you figure there were safe

Damn, no wonder you liberals keep losing.

The concept of a "safe" intersection in Iraq is a very relative term... As
