Number of Wounded in Action on Rise (washingtonpost.com)

http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/articles/A12096-2003Sep1.html

U.S. battlefield casualties in Iraq are increasing dramatically in the face of continued attacks by remnants of Saddam Hussein's military and other forces, with almost 10 American troops a day now being officially declared "wounded in action."

1. So the ratio is approximately 1 1/2 to 10?

One and 1/2 dead to 10 wounded times four years?

Does anyone believe the number of our children dead and wounded will go down?

What number of dead and wounded were considered acceptable when those right wing think tank schemers planned the campaign to take the oil?

Here's a poll for you -

Does the cabal whose front person is President Worst or, if you prefer, President Imperialist, care about the dead and wounded other than for the success and longevity of their oil agenda for the region?

Here's another -

Would you agree that there are two governments active in this country - the secret imperialistic one and the pretend one (the pretend one is the one that tells you that your vote counts, among other myths)?

Here's another -

Will any of the Democratic candidates who voted for the war win the candidacy?

The most perfect voting record in two decades

NO to Gulf War 1
NO to Gulf War 11

3. Secret imperialistic government

Yep--this whole secret imperialistic government really does run everything, I've decided. So really there's no point in bothering to be informed on the issues or posting on internet boards or caring about politics at all.

Unless you are part of the secret imperialistic government (and, believe me, you'd know if you were), your opinion doesn't matter.

So why vote? Why try to support democratic candidates? Just give up and find something else to occupy your time. (Personally I'm thinking about giving rock collectiong another go).

Oh, in case you didn't catch on, of coures this is nonsense.

5. The idea that there's no point voting or organizing

7. Calling it a secret government is a little off

because they have been outing themselves quite distinctly.

Another, possibly better name, is sub-government.

We operate just as we think it did in the forties and fifties - one people with two + parties who work together for the good of the country, etc. etc.

Now we know that there is a party of the corporations and the group of people they are trying to make obedient and who they want to work for nothing and whose taxes they want to abuse.

If I didn't want my vote and everyone elses vote to count I wouldn't be here - trying to get educated so that I can get other people interested in what appears to be their takeover of rights, opinion, and votes.

2. The KIA..

while terrible isn't the thread that will bring Bush down. The wounded far out-number the dead. What someone needs to do if find some of these kids and get their faces on TV.
