McCafferty "We're losing a company of soldiers and a platoon of Marines"
"Every week, it's a real war". Now I'm not a fan of the former drug czar, but, he said it straight out on NBC national news, and I've got to give him credit for it.

There are over three hundred attacks against Americans in Iraq every week and picking up momentum and sophistication. We can't sustain these losses of personnel and equipment.

Something is going to happen, soon. Things aren't going all the dark lords way and the darkness is breaking up too soon. More and more voices are being raised against this madness, this and all the stuff coming to light is going to tip the scales for us.

I hope they put georgie* in Leavenworth because it's close and I can go moon the prison.

1. Losing a company of soldiers a week and no one wants to replace them
You are right, soon things will be so bad for the military that not even the media will able to ignore it.

3. Yep
Right now it's like Perot's crazy aunt in the basement, but when the wind starts blowing and the draft starts coming in under the door, I don't think it'll be ignored too long.

2. What the F*&@ did they expect?
You bomb the crap out of a country that didn't attack us, you're going to piss off lots of people in that country.

Hey, Rethugs, WE TOLD YOU SO.
