Just the Facts..

Today is a day for the raw facts and numbers. Things that we don't always look at, or enjoy looking at. So,, take a deep breath .. Here we go.

• United States casualties in Iraq to date: 2,442
  

• U.S. Wounded in Iraq to date: 17,774
• 
  
• Cost of the "War for Gas" so far. $283,462,500,241.00

Sources for above items.......... US casualties

Cost of this War .. { this one is really cool.. You'll see a running total for the war, & you can translate it to determine what else the money could have brought}

According to George W. Bush, this war was over in April of 2003.. Yet the deaths have kept rising, the wounded keep getting hurt, and he & Mr Cheney keep making money from it..
Bottom line is this question. What do we want to accomplish in Iraq?? So far, we have only seen negatives. Is there a plan for some positive things here? Can anyone honestly answer that question?
