on counting the war dead . . .
I propose that Democrats -- including Senator Kerry -- cease referring to the number of Americans killed in Iraq and substitute instead a phrase like "The thousands of human lives that have been lost in Iraq -- including almost 600 American servicemen and women -- and the many more thousands who have been maimed or injured" . . . this is a more accurate, more humane, and more compassionate way of describing the carnage that BushCo has perpetrated, and it will help clarify for voters the true cost of this illegal and immoral war . . .

1. Did something like this go to the DOD? Seems to me I read it.
Some one wanted those numbers out and on TV from the GOP I think.I can not recall where I read that.
