2. There were 16,500 deads in Vietnam, right?
Let's see how far Bush wants to go in Iraq.

My guess is when the number of death reaching the number of death from 9/11, that would be the time to withdraw.

3. more than 58,000 dead...
More than 58,000 U.S. military personnel died in Vietnam before the war ended in the mid-1970s.

and 2-3 Million Vietnamese dead.

4. I almost fainted
when I saw this thread. But my son's assigned to Team 8 in the 2nd Div./2nd Expeditionary Force.
But two other mothers (and fathers and loved ones...) are going to have the phone call. Or visit.
I'm so sorry.

6. After we've impeached the chimp*
and chucked old snarlin dick into the clay because his ticker went boom. I would love to see the chimp* kkkarl and everyone connected to these bastards charged with murder.
Hell, I'd love to see them at the Hague answering to charges of war crimes. I wish I was a religious person and could believe in eternal justice for earthly misdeeds, there isn't anyone else I can think of who needs eternal punishment as much as these bastards do.
