An important and useful document. It should be spread.

Thanks, we've been trying to get it out there. Some have copied it and sent it to their critters. If everyone would do that it may get some traction.

We are all entitled to our opinions.

HA! Fitting isn't it?

The American people ain’t .....

You don't speak for the American people any more than Hairy Reid does and you dang sure do not speak for me!

[Just A Nobody]

It’s to their credit that our enemys can’t kill more than they do.

Yes it is. I am so grateful for our heroes!

I think you are blaming the wrong person

Ooooops, you are correct. I did not notice that I had forgot to post this beauty before I left today.

I really wish someone would do a more hardcore investigative piece on those statistics and what politicians were saying/promising in Washington at the time.

I've often said the same thing. Ping me to your thread when it's ready. ;*)

The MSM fails to recognize the Iraqi sacrifice in this war. Iraqis are fighting and dying for their country in numbers greater than ours. Lest they forget.

“Not once, especially on ABC news radio have I ever heard of the type of operation the troops were conducting or how many of the enemy were killed.”

Great point. Anyone who truly cares for the troops would talk about the heroic acts that our soldiers have done in conjunction to the sacrifice they made. The only time I hear about a reason for the death is when it is some training accident. The media posts a blank number, as if it were a gunman in a shopping mall picking off easy targets. The longer stories are a thin veneer on an anti-war story with plenty of politicians’ quotes concluding with the anti-war side.

Every AP story about Iraq could be summed up: “X troops were killed in Iraq today casting doubt [we hope] on President Bush’s plans for the war on terror.”

You know, I bet if you asked the side against the war on terror if the war is partisan politics, they would say yes. I think the other side sees it as solely Bush’s political activity, with no relation to anything else.
