Our 1,000th day in Iraq.

Edited on Tue Dec-13-05 10:25 AM by Hyernel

Today (Dec. 13, 2005) is our 1000th day of quagmire.

2,146 Americans dead (2,347...if we include the killed coalition of the bribed and coerced)
Tens of thousands wounded and forever maimed. Is there anything more sad than a 19 year old amputee?
And more than $300 BILLION spent, and misappropriated.

And Bush has said that he'd do it all again, even knowing what he now knows about WMD's and the non-link to alQaeda. (Of course, he knew the first time too)
