To: PhiKapMom; All
Brave people entered the military to fight for their country in the event of a war. After the attack on America they were called to duty realizing the possible consequences. The left and the media began a campaign at the start of the Iraq war to highlight casualties EVERY day. Their goal was not to be interrupted by number of deaths, simply to continue the process of force feeding the issue in front of America EVERY day.
When wars occur people die. So why does it make sense to keep score? The war has been won yet we are in extra innings cleaning-up what remains. And people are still demanding front page details of EVERY incident EVERY day?
I understand why this is breaking news for the left, but why do I continue to see it here?
