Wolf is displaying the increases in the number of attacks in Afghanistan...
Lovely how these MSM like to point out the "wins" by the enemy...but never put up charts showing the "wins" by our forces.
I did see on Gateway Pundit last night...a little tidbit that said that in the 8 years of Clinton's presidency there was an average of 939 military deaths per year..
Under Pres. Bush's presidency there has been an average of 800 military deaths per year.
I bet you won't see those statistics being waved around during the POTUS campaign by Hillary and gang.
The last time I recall a DBM report on our doing well in the WOT war was when we took out 250 or 300 recently in Iraq.
It's just no in their political interest. Remember,to dems,DBM, the war really doesn't exist only the political value of the war.

A friend pointed out that Gateway's analysis is questionable. I went and looked at the raw data and he has a point. The figure for Bush casualties are for hostile action, the Clinton figures are totals for all deaths which include accidents, illness and homicide.
That being said, the directly comparable figure for total deaths under Bush are only a percentage (10-20) above Clinton's (not an order of magnitude which might be expected) which does demonstrate how low casualties have been in this war. Too bad this kind of discussion even has to be addressed. If we had a loyal media...
