3. There will be more needless deaths
until we get the hell out of a country we should never have invaded. The biggest tragedy is that the spoiled, arrogant, incompetent, miserable excuse of an illegal president just had to have his way, and he pays no consequence for his actions.

The price is paid by others, both American and Iraqi. Getting our troops back home needs to be done now, not later. I know how hard this is for you, Mari...you and Michael are in my prayers every day.

4. It looks like on average 2-3 US troops will be killed needlessly each day.
