"Game time"?

You flippant assholes. Are you telling the loved ones of the first 3,381 killed there that they died during the 'pregame'?

We know you don't care, but try a little harder to hide it.
"It's game time'' in Iraq – where Americans are attempting to convince Iraqi leaders to forgo a summer vacation.

Vice President Dick Cheney dropped in on American military commanders in Baghdad this morning. Air Force Two landed at Baghdad International Airport at 8:56 a.m., local time, and Cheney flew by helicopter to the Green Zone, where he proceeded to the U.S. embassy.

...The vice president's message boils down to this, according to the official speaking on condition of anonymity: "We’ve all got challenges together. We’ve got to pull together. We’ve got to get this work done. It’s game time.”
