We don’t hear about the total number of U.S. soldiers killed in “Operation Iraqi Freedom” very often anymore — Iraq!  George Bush’s war  — but I think we should keep the number in mind.  4,367 Americans.  4,685 “Coalition of the Willing” forces.

What a waste.  What an awful, awful waste.

I’m proud to say that before Bush launched his war I was a member of the “focus group” that protested against the loss of those lives.

Those 4,367 people were alive then.  They didn’t have to die.
