“655,000 Iraqi civilians are dead. “

It’s fascinating how innumerate leftists live to toss out bogus statistics.

Even the anti-war “Iraq Body Count” puts the figure at no more than 71,000.

Rosie is citing the numbers from the bogus study printed in “The Lancet” just before the U.S. Congressional elections. Even those bogus figures were for *all* violent deaths — not just civilian deaths.

BTW — none of these “studies” differentiates between innocent civilians, and armed combatants — who deliberately avoid wearing a uniform so they can hide behind civilians.

The “studies” also don’t say who’s doing the killing — they just imply that it’s all the doing of the coalition forces.

Quick - someone tell Rosie that over TWO MILLION Americans died last year. It MUST be Bush’s Fault!
