Over 100 US lives will be lost today in traffic accidents.

And this makes it OK that US soldiers are being killed in Iraq, and that
US citizens at home and abroad are at greater risk of terrorist attack?

The best logic the Bushies can come up with... "Oh well, you'd probably
die in a traffic accident anyway, what are you complaining about..."

That's
not the measure. The measure should be, is there progress being
made? Yes.

Where? On what grounds? No progress visible to anybody with their eyes &
ears open.


The average incident in which an American soldier (in
Iraq) is killed or injured in gunfire, lasts about three minutes.
In most all cases, the terrorist shooters will never be able to
shoot anyone ever again.

So, in your opinion we are trading American soldiers lives for terrorist
lives? That logic might have won World War 2, but it won't win this.
Especially when the Bushies makes it increasingly easy to recruit new
terrorists.


And increasingly, the terrorists are being
killed or arrested first, because more and more Iraqis are
providing information about where they can be found.

Maybe so, if you actually believe the propaganda. Of course, Iraqi
terrorists have NO connection or correlation to Al Queda and the Sept
11th terrorists. So 'progress' in Iraq whether fallacious or factual is
not going to help the overall situation one bit.

Of course, to the Bush propagandists, facts are totally irrelevant...
sort of like facts are irrelevant to the North Korean regime... spooky,
huh?
