Oh, God! We're there - 4,000 dead

[FightingIrish]

US Fatalities in Iraq just reached 4,000. They'll say it's just an arbitrary milestone. Tell that to the 4,000 families devastated by Bush's War.

2. A sad, devastating milestone.

Too many dead. 4,000 too many.

HOW MANY MORE!?!?!?

:grr:

[BattyDem]

3. Damn!

:cry:

[mkultra]

4. this must end

[JohnnyLib2]

5. Horrible, horrible, horrible.

Sigh.

[Ichingcarpenter]

6. I thought ONE or a 100 was too many

but that was years ago.

What is the next number, 5000?

SAD DAY......

[Ichingcarpenter]

A sad but nominated thread

Happy Easter............ NOT

[FightingIrish]

8. When the war is an illegal whim of an idiot asshole,

one is too many.

[Ichingcarpenter]

12. Put '4000 dead' in your title ......

You still have time......

[Cerridwen]

7. K & R because this belongs on the Greatest Page for the Greatest

Sadness.

[liberal N proud]

9. A dark day in our history

:cry:

[FightingIrish]

10. I remember reading aloud the names of the fallen when the toll

reached 500. It seemed to take forever and,when it came to my turn, I was almost too choked up to read. God damn George Bush. Happy Easter.

11. I've always thought it is kind of odd that it takes round numbers to get people

upset. The one more over 3,999 is in truth what people get all upset about rather than the 3,999. Round numbers prompt outrage. It's kind of a strange human condition.

[Ichingcarpenter]

13. Americans think they are getting a deal at 3999

but forget they have to pay a heavy tax on their soul.

14. "Where have all the flowers gone?..." n.t

[rasputin1952]

15. With great remorse, I have nominated this thread...

People need to know, and the little that will be seen on the MSM is not enough to realize the impact that this has had.

[malaise]

16. 4,000 lives lost for George Bush and his cronies politics

and greed. Fuck all of them.

They are the real terrorists.

[Ichingcarpenter]

17. War Criminals

Terrorist and traitors to this Nation.

[tblue37]

18. Tony Snow said, when we hit 3000, that "It's just a number."

I wonder whether Dana Perrino will say something equally offensive about 4000.

[AnotherMother4Peace]

22. & bush said this "war is just a comma in history..." words of a sociopath. n/t

[FightingIrish]

23. In some ways maybe it is just a number but

when I tried to tell my wife the news, I couldn't get it out.

[Ichingcarpenter]

19. This war must end............ NOW!!!

It is draining the very soul out this nation
that even our children's children will wear
around their neck for posterity.

[Omaha Steve]

20. And it seems like only yesterday W said.......

There won't be any casualties! Then it was mission accomplished.

[Ichingcarpenter]

24. 6 days? 6 weeks ....... I doubt it will last 6 months... Donald Rumsfeld

Now it has lasted longer than any war.

[bluesmail]

21. one was too many, it's a tragic milestone

[JanMichael]

25. Toss in those "savages" lives and we've probably hit 1 Million.

But all we care about here is are loungin's.

4k is child's play compared to the loss of life of actual Iraqi's.

Who's life is more special...All lives are special; at least they should be.

Pfft.

[Ichingcarpenter]

29. I know and they will be paying the price of our illegal War for years

It was an aggressive war outlawed by the Geneva Conventions.

[Ichingcarpenter]

26. You know I will be glad when the primaries are over

I don't see too many of them posting on this thread
or even any that support the candidate that voted for it.

Just mad that GDP have their heads up their ass and most
never post anything other than there that keeps the public
informed on the Bush Crime Family or the lost of our civil
liberties.

27. Kicked and Recommended. Sad Day... /nt

[grace0418]

28. Sickening.

And for what? What good has come out of this? :cry:

[1776Forever]

30. If you have ever been to one of the funerals you realize what a loss this is for our country.

Sitting in the pews of a church and listening to the glowing remarks of the person being honored makes one wonder just what they could have accomplished in their lives if they could have gone on. The young man's funeral I went to was a Navy Seabee in my son's unit. He was only 25 years old. These men and women are truly our hero's, each and everyone of them.

God bless their families and loved ones and I pray the War will be over soon and peace will reign for all of us someday.

31. "I had not thought that death

had undone so many." God damn George Bush.

33. Dammit

Damn the warmongers to hell.

[FloridaJudy]

34. Oh, but don't you know

That the Idiot in Chief thinks that war is so "romantic". :sarcasm:

Gods, but I hate that man.

[Jeffersons Ghost]

35. K&R... it's wrong to blame the Occupation of Iraq on Bush...

It took a Republican majority in the House and Senate to facilitate the Iraq slaughter. Also, let's not forget the DINOS that kept voting to fund the fiasco.

[Tektonik]

36. RIP

[Breeze54]

37. 4000 to many and to many Iraqi's....
