(CNSNews.com) - With 496 casualties, 2010 was by far the deadliest year for U.S. troops fighting a war in Afghanistan that has now entered its tenth year, according to casualty reports issued by the Department of Defense and tracked in a comprehensive database of war casualties maintained by CNSNews.com.

There were 303 U.S. casualties in the Afghanistan war in 2009, making 2009 the second deadliest year of the war.

So, we lose one Soldier every time Obama makes a Double Bogey.

As with Gas Prices, Wikileaks, Unemployment, whatever, does anyone else notice the complete lack of outrage against the Bamster that would have been daily fodder in the Media if Bush was still the POTUS?

The manipulation of the ignorant masses is beyond my comprehension. The same energy used to vilify and promote outright hatred against Bush is now being focused on the fact that poor Obama still got his wonderful programs through despite the opposition of those mean Republicans.

I have a problem with this article, and all articles like it; it reports only our casualties, omitting those of our enemy.
