1. That makes it 8 so far this month, right?

But keep in mind:

"The story of what we've done in the postwar period is remarkable. ... It is a better and more important story than losing a couple of soldiers every day." George Nethercutt (R-WA)


So it's all good. <sarcasm off>

2. Support our troops! Four more years! Yeeehaw!

By the time Bush is done with his second term, our military is going to be a shell of what it was. We're looking at tens of thousands of casualties (dead and wounded) and a volunteer army that is stressed to the breaking point.

Rest in peace soldier.

3. NO The Upcoming DRAFT will solve the manpower problem

They allow illegal residents to enlist. The hook is --- they ( the illegals) then get their citizenship. And can clean toilets when they get "OUT" of the military.

4. No more sad than the 1st unfortunate fatallity

Of Bush's unfortunate war of futility.

I'm very sorry for his family and loved ones.
He deserved better leadership.
