I think the military is suppressing casualty numbers until after 11/2
I keep a pretty close eye on http://www.icasualties.org and there has only been one casualty reported since 10/16. That's immediately following a period where we were losing 5 men/women per day. The news reports indicate that there are just as many attacks going on, including attacks on US military. I just find it unusual that we've gone a week without reporting any casualties.

Do you think the Bush regime has ordered the military to suppress casualty numbers until after the election?

1. I believe that too.
One Connecticut man was killed days ago when his helicopter crashed (and that accident had two deaths). And each day you hear of more bombings.

Plus, it fits with Bush's MO -- if the facts don't fit the message, just discard the facts.

Where else could we check the numbers?
