11,888 WOUNDED IN ACTION
because george bush lied

1,574 flag draped coffins flown back to the United States under the cover of darkness because george bush lied

Countless "Americans" posting at free republic who don't give a fuck about george bush's lies and who could not possibly care less about those flag draped coffins.

1. OMG! And no end in sight. What is wrong
with this country? With us? How can we stop it? Sorry, for those who don't or can't compare this to VN, wait a couple of years, check out the numbers, and then wonder how this happened.

2. And they say Iraq is not like Vietnam...
...but it sure is in the way the bodies and wounded keep piling up and Americans go about their business as if nothing is happening.

3. Culture of life be damned.
I almost punched someone yesterday for saying "better there than here."

4. Someone really said that to you? OMG I really think I would have
punched them. Two days without ciggs and I'm about to punch someone for less than that - but that would have done it for me.

5. hey BOSSHOG! - A photo from last week
Just thought I'd share a photo from the Veterans for Peace traveling memorial. This was taken on Tuesday of lastweek so the numbers are no longer accurate.

6. And didn't Walter Reed Hosp. say that 60% of the injured have head trauma?
It was just a short time ago that this came out.

7. and how many injured by "accident" in this war?
I bet the numbers are HIGH!

The mis-administration has been able to manipulate numbers thru their entire tenure! - if it has ANYTHING TO DO WITH NUMBERS, DON'T BELIEVE IT TO BE TRUE!

8. Here's a good site to get that information
http://icasualties.org/oif/

They provide all the information you'll want or need relating to combat deaths and injuries by combat or accident.
