Dont forget the 9000 KIA in one day at Normandy

Outstanding point. Thanks. I just saw 'Flags of our Fathers' so I was thinking about Iwo Jima, but your point is even more illustrative.

How is it suddenly 2,500 dead over years is a 'disaster'?

For example, 2,300 murdered in California in 2003.

Iraq isn't a cakewalk but we lost 3,200 in ONE DAY in 2001.

It's a disaster when there's no need for the 2500+ to be dead. I'm sorry, but your condescending remark is no different than Kerry's in my opinion. Rumfeld's policies and actions towards the military are more reflective of Kerry elitism than support for the troops.
