Are Americans Willing to Accept 100+ Dead Per Month?

For the second month in a row, troop deaths in Iraq have easily surpassed the 100 mark; with 117 dead last month and 118 dead so far this month. These aren't logs to throw on the fire in the hope of warming Bush's legacy. Each one of these lives touches many others and we lose the contributions each of these valuable individuals would likely make to our society.

My rough calculation is that the surge is increasing troop deaths by approximately 50%.

America doesn't want this war, hates this President and will not stomach these deaths.

  • At htis junctur, the war and American deaths, apparently doesn't matter as much as the next election, or as some have come to bleieve, the next "auction". Those fuckers and fuckees are too concerned about raising $ to worry about policy.

  • Cindy Sheehan, as well as numerous other activists have had it with the democrats! Bring on the independent party canidates!

    "I’ve been wondering why I’m killing myself and wondering why the Democrats caved in to George Bush,” Sheehan told The Associated Press by phone Tuesday while driving from her property in Crawford to the airport, where she planned to return to her native California.
