1. I think the number of American dead now stands at about 515
Your sig line was obsolete several days ago, unfortunately.

3. cheney is touring swiss/italian alps with his wife and daughter
asscroft is on that BIG economic world forum junket...also with his wife, out in Vienna, Austria now (THE location for classical music), screaming about 'evil chemistry' and 'evil biology' and embarrassing US on the World stage....why is the attorney general out at an 'economic forum'???

bush is out collecting millions for his primary campaign against NOBODY....

it's outrageous that these scums are all out on junkets, at OUR EXPENSE, while OUR soldiers DIE....shouldn't they all be HERE working on an exit-Iraq plan, or finding the anthrax killer or osama-bin-missing...this mis-administration is partying away, while OUR soldiers die....and NOBODY is saying a word about it...

5. I wonder why all these deaths do not seem to matter anymore....
That poem about.."They came for the Jews but I am " (or something like that) must apply. Unless the death hits home in some way...people just don't seem to care.

They don't grasp the seriousness of the decision to invade a soverign country, the depletion of our treasury, and the demolition of the middle class. I guess if the market is up...life is good!

People will wake up at some point...I hope!

6. Deep Denial
thats why every Friday I stand on the street in front of the PO in town with all their pictures, and my stepsons pic, and make people look at the faces. They look. Sometimes, they turn their heads. Other times they honk or give a peace sign. This is a repug town too, but the denial is so great amongst people its unbelievable.
They arent seeing the body bags, the dead, the coffins, the wounded on TV at ALL. No one is covering it.
Its an abomination , a seriously horrific abomination that the news media is more intent on ratings and Kobe F8cking Bryant then they are on our dead and wounded children who have died or been wounded for NOTHING.
in the meantime all the military families can do is protest and even THATS not covered.
Damn the news media, the blood is on their hands.

It was your posts that help push me over to this side. I share your pain and anger. I just don't know what to do about it. I feel helpless
