Idaho just lost another boy in Iraq - TV announced
To follow Rose's post. Our kids are taking a tremendous hit this month. For what? This insanity has to stop. The only people profiting from this war are the corporate globalists who also are Bush donors. This is an outrage. We had no reason to go into Iraq and we have No reason to still be there.

2. I just read nine US deaths in the last 24 hours.
Does this make ten?

:-(

I'm so sorry for the families of this soldier.

AND for Iraqi families. It's just sad all around, isn't it?

And for what?

3. Sorry to hear that, looks like the death rate is going to be...
...the highest since December.

Also, let's not forget the now 20,000 U.S. Troops in Afganastan. I looks like the 2005 deaths are going to be the highest yet. 30 so far in 2005, 2004 total was 52. The link below is from the same site (at the bottom)

Operation Enduring Freedom Fatalities

4. What didn't you hear ...

Things are gettin "better" in Iraq everyday. The media is just biased and only reports "bad" news like dead Americans coming home in boxes.

</sarcasm>


The Bushevicks keep talking about the well being of Iraqis. They didn't care when Hussein was taking over. They didn't care when Hussein was gassing Kurds with weapons SOLD to them by the REAGAN administration.

They could give a rats ass then, and they give a rats ass about Iraqi people now. Their contempt for Iraqis is only outdone by their contempt for AMERICANS. The Iraqis weren't STUPID enough to vote either Hussein OR Bush into power.

The Republicans CONTINUE to shy away from comparisons between Vietnam and Iraq. Yet the Republicans NEVER admitted Vietnam was a mistake. They are arrogant and deceiptful. And it is my sincere hope that folks in RED STATES will FINALLY get what the Bushevicks are up to.

6. But the GOP doesn't shy away from taking the profits paid for
our dead kids and spreading it out globally.

7. They're VERY shy ...
... that's why 8.1 billion is MISSING unaccounted for and seemingly no one in the GOP cares to look for it.

8. That makes the reasoning for our dead kids
deaths even more sad.
