Sorry, but I got real fed up with the AP's latest "celebration" today.

Are we going to get a breakdown of exactly how these people died? Certainly not by drowning. Not all of them.

Can you make a companion poster for the 1 million Muslims killed by Saddam?

Liberals are only interested in counting illegal votes and dead bodies. Often they are the same people.

The death rate is about the same or better than living in LA, though the LA Times never runs that statistic. They include accidents in the total to inflate it.

The only death milestones I want to celebrate are of the heads of the enemy.

IMO, the Administration should start running their own counter celebrations.

The President is spooked about the head count comparison to Vietnam. But, maybe let the Iraqis give a weekly total of perps killed by coalition and Iraqi forces.

If you go to Alan Colmes' website, he has a counter for money being spent on the war, but none for the death toll. Just goes to show you what the Left really cares about.

So many of these blatant "statistics" are set to backfire on those smug anti-US enemy supporters. Medved did a handy job of dissecting these "numbers" today on his talk show. If he's right , these atrocities will have serious "blowback" on the very ones so smugly and gleefully presenting them.
Take Heart.

What the heck is wrong with our side? We post the number for our fallen solders how about some numbers for the ragheads,I just don't understand the logic.

It's because of Vietnam. The enemy body counts became a source of embarrassment and a tool for the left to bash our troops, the President, and America. Odd how now the left loves them, provided it's our guys being counted.
