President Bush's "Bring Them On" Picture Album

Mr Bush proclaimed "bring them on", and our soldiers have
suffered & died since.

This is what the unelected, court-appointed, PNAC President
Bush has done. He lied to Congress. He lied to all Americans.
He tricked and scared Americans to 'justify' his PNAC planned
occupation of Iraqi oil fields, a PNAC plan which lusted for
control, a plan that Cheney was even drooling over Iraqi Oil
maps in his 'energy task force' even prior to 9-11

Hopi Prayer
-author unknown

Do not stand at my grave and weep.
I am not there, I do not sleep.
I am the thousand winds that blow.
I am the diamond glint in the snow.
I am the sunlight on the ripened grain.
I am the autumn's gentle rain.
When you awaken in the morning hush,
I am the swift uplifting rush.
Of quiet birds in circled flight.
I am the soft stars that shine at night.
Do not stand at my grave and cry;
I am not there,
I did not die.

1. 254 troops dead after July 4th weekend.
When Bush made that comment.

The count now is 291 per CNN.

Media Underplays U.S. Death Toll in Iraq
Soldiers Dead Since May Is 3 Times Official Count

http://www.informationclearinghouse.info/article4148.htm

excerpt -

Nevertheless, the media continues to report the much lower figure of 33 as if those are the only deaths that count.

A Web site called Iraq Coalition Casualty Count (http://lunaville.org/warcasualties/Summary.aspx) is tracking the deaths, by whatever cause, of U.S. military personnel in Iraq, based on official Pentagon and CENTCOM press releases and Army Times and CNN casualty trackers. Their current count is 85 since May 2.

Looking at the entire war, there was much fanfare Thursday over the fact that the latest U.S. combat death this week pushed the official total to 148 -- finally topping the 147 figure for Gulf War 1. However, according to the Iraq Coalition Casualty Count, the total number of all U.S. deaths, combat and otherwise, in Iraq is actually 224.

(note : the total is now currently much higher since this
article was published)

3. Media is doing a great disservice to our troops.
If they report ALL the deaths, the nation may rise up and demand that Bush bring our troops home.
