2. But Rush assures us no one should care except for the families of those who die
Rush is a soulless bastard--he and his ilk must surely have a special place in hell reserved for them. Meanwhile, with regard to this report, words once again fail me except to say how much I hate *, his evil minions and their ugly misbegotten "war". Oh...and there's that awful sorrow and emptiness that overcomes me when our troops die in the aforementioned "war". The one that seems to be without end...Damn!

Tired Old Cynic

3. So how many have now died since the GOP defeated the Iraq pullout
that the Dems tried to pass a week ago? The GOP knows how to support the troops. They also defeated the bill that would require a minimum period of time between combat deployments. Nothing like keeping the morale down. GOP! GOP! Go, Team, Go!

This needs to be an issue in every race where a republican holds a seat until they are eliminated as a destructive force.
