3,346 U.S. troops now dead in W's war
And the rebuilt infrastructure paid for by our taxes is already crumbling. At www.icasualties.org

W's corporate buds have never seen higher profits. He'll keep our troops and tax $ there as long as he can. Unfortunately the bushbots won't stand up for American and against him.

1. I really wish folks would pay attention to how insignificant this is...
Edited on Sat Apr-28-07 11:41 PM by mike_c
...compared to the number of Iraqis that Americans have murdered. Hundreds of thousands. Closer to two million if we count those killed during Clinton's presidency. And we only express angst about 3,346 U.S. occupation forces killed while committing a crime against humanity.

3. Yes, we are killing thousands of Muslims and decimating their culture
But with the likes of Coulter, Savage, Rush, etc. this is seen as a good thing and everyone keeps quiet about their deaths. All Muslims are out to kill us is their theme, and the only good Muslim is a dead one. Just like the Commie thing. Add to it that these people are brown skinned, and the bushbots could care less about their deaths. In fact, the more, the better.

5. Maybe it's because the 3346 are ours.
I think there's angst enough to go around.

7. do you suppose
that by the time it's 4,000 lives lost gas will be $4.00 a gallon? As is we've lost 3,300 and gas is $3.30 a gallon. I believe I hit upon the only plan Bush has for post invasion Iraq. Lives equal oil dollars for his special interest buddies. As those gas pump prices rise Bush's popularity will go down. He doesn't care about polls or popularity. He could care less about those pesky casualties...his friends are getting rich and keeping the tax dollars while they are at it.
