We should take a poll on which one of the big three - Blather, Brokejaw or Petah first says the word "quagmire". Someone will have to report on the actual results becuase I have not actually watched the SOB's for several years now. My vote is for Brokejaw.
The commentator on Fox brought it -- the q-word -- up about 8 minutes ago to a guest he was interviewing. Fox wins.

Without minimizing the lives already lost in this war, please consider this. There are nearly 300,000 coalition troops involved in the war. If we took a look at any segment of the US with a population of 300K, I suspect the deaths from accident or violence within five days would be considerably higher than the 18 Americans and 16 Brits confirmed dead in this war. I feel the professionalism of our armed forces has been proven in the past five days. Of course, accidents (and violence) are expected during wartime. Although I wish none had perished, it seems that this number is incredibly low compared with a group of a similar size living right here.
