1. Yeah...
But its progress, we are winning the war, we are etc etc....blah blah blah. When will people wake up, and realize this war is so, wrong on many different levels, but the worst level is this :our troops are dying for a down right lie. In the words of Pink Floyd "Bring the Boys Back Home".....

2. 1 death away from 1800 - 7 deaths away from 2000 total coalition
Of course the media will maybe try to squeeze a 10 second report on this sad statistic around a Vonage Commercial or another exciting update from Aruba. Maybe.

5. The real question is where's Natalee?
If Natalee were a soldier, no one would give a damn.

9. Too bad the Comanche in Chief wasn't scalped over there
I suppose a chickenhawk would never fight for his country.

14. Acceptable loss to the assholes calling the shots.
After all, after serving in Bush's military, those soldiers were likely to vote with us.
