It’s official. The U.S. death toll in Iraq has hit the 4,000 mark.
At this rate, if John McCain wins and we’re there for “100 years if necessary,” that’ll bring our tally up to at least 80,000 deaths in this hundred-year war (and probably just wipe out all of Iraq, seeing as how iraqbodycount.org has a minimum of 82,349 documented civilian deaths to date).
I wonder where the candidates stand on repealling that ban the Bush administration put back into effect that bars photos of soldiers’ coffins from being published. Anyone know? Hit me up.

I’m a Soldier in the U.S. Army and when I heard news of the 4000 death mark I became sick to my stomach. I’m lucky enough to have been to Iraq and return home to my family but so many of my fellow Soldiers have not been as fortunate. And in my heart i feel like every one of those 4000 deaths our president is to be blamed for.
We’ve opened up a discussion on our blog so I can talk to people and answer their questions and hopefully make people understand that not all military are supporting this war and that every one of those deaths was important and unneeded. I’d like it you’d stop by and toss in your two cents.
I’m all for defending my country but U.S. did not need to be defended from Iraq.
