Subject: Withdraw?



Interesting Thought for the day: Gotta love the logic.

If you consider that there have been an average of 160,000 troops in the
Iraq theater of operations during the last 22 months, and a total of
2112 deaths, that gives a firearm death rate of 60 per 100,000.

The rate in Washington D.C. (among others) is 80.6 per 100,000.

That means that you are about 25% more likely to be shot and killed in
our Nation's Capitol, which has some of the strictest gun control laws in
the nation, than you are in Iraq.

Conclusion: We should immediately pull out of Washington D.C.

OK, so for you, there's an acceptable number of casualties which make the
war OK. Where's the cutoff? How many per 100,000?

Brilliant!

You would find something like that "brilliant". One set of numbers has
nothing to do with the other, but then again, you right wingers are
always in need of something to spin because of the miserable condition
you've gotten this country in.
