US "combat" deaths
You see it in the newspaper, you hear on the nightly news, you see it on CNN:

http://story.news.yahoo.com/news?tmpl=story&u=/ap/20030803/ap_on_re_mi_ea/iraq_1381

"Since President Bush declared an end to major combat in Iraq on May 1, 52 U.S. soldiers have been killed in guerrilla attacks, bringing combat deaths in the war to 167, 20 more than in the 1991 Gulf War"


! ! ! D O N ' T Y O U B E L I E V E I T ! ! !

Here's another story from CNN:

http://story.news.yahoo.com/news?tmpl=story&u=/ap/20030806/ap_on_re_mi_ea/iraq_us_deaths_8

"As of Tuesday, Aug. 5, 251 U.S. soldiers have died since the beginning of military operations in Iraq, according to the Department of Defense."

That's TWO-HUNDRED FIFTY-ONE as of yesterday - and we have another DEAD AMERICAN SOLDIER to bring home today.

the pResident wants to keep this a secret, off the publics radar, he wants us to forget about these honorable people who died following HIS orders. After all, you can't be elected if people see you covered in blood.

We can't let the "liberal'" media, the *Bush misAdministration or the American people forget about these lives sacrificed to the god of oil. We can't let them forget the lies that led us to war.

If we needed anything to prove how truly EVIL Bush is - this is it.

IMAGINE this happening under Clinton! IMAGINE him saying "bring em on" after Mogadishu! I guarantee my dad would not have that as his email sig line if it had come from Bill's mouth!

3. 258 US deaths.
They are nearing the "tipping" point; when deaths post "Mission Accomplished" exceed deaths pre "Mission Accomplished."

Here's the list.
