This is fucking revolting. And the repubs say "The Media has a liberal bias?"

ONLY ten or so Americans (And how many Iraqis? They don't bother to say.) dead this month, and we're supposed to be HAPPY about that.

Excuse me while I go vomit.

1. "nearly twice as many U.S. troops have been killed in Afghanistan than in Iraq this month"

According to icasualties.org, "nearly twice as many U.S. troops have been killed in Afghanistan than in Iraq so far this month." If the July statistics hold, "they'll mark the lowest American military death toll in Iraq, and http://app.mx3.americanprogressaction.org/e/er.aspx?s=785&lid=8056&elq=FB1B654BAB474B549A1894973DB07737">the second highest toll in Afghanistan, after June, when 27 U.S. troops were killed there" and 29 were killed in Iraq.

2. Ah, but that "liberally-biased media" doesn't make that comparison, does it?

Can the right-wingers get MORE delusional?

4. Of course not... I barely hear them talk about it at all... What war?

3. 10?

Only 10 or so acknowledged from combat. How many from sickness, suicide or electrocuted from faulty wiring? How many lives destroyed, how many maimed?

5. Fuck if I know. It's not like the horrible Liberal Media is going to report things like that.

Because, as you know they're Flaming Liberals and Will Do Anything To Sabotage Our Noble Cause In The War On Terrorism.
