1. This needs to be broadcast EVERY DAMN DAY on every news program

And we all know it won't be.

2. That's why Tweety et al piss me off

They keep bandying about the 'only' 2500 causalities. Fuckers! It's 20,000 casualties, 8000 WIA not RTD! That's 10,000 Americans in 3 years wounded badly enough to not return to theater that's what we got to get every MSM, Air America to keep reminding Americans "who don't give a shit because they don't have a friend or child in harm's way"!

4. Yep, "casualties" has always included the number of wounded...

... that is, until now.

They (the MSM) don't report the total number of casualties because TPTB know the American people would shit a brick if the reality hit them in the face every day. Out of sight, out of mind, as the saying goes. But ignoring or simply not reporting the number of our wounded won't change the truth and doing so is an insult to every man and woman who has ever worn the uniform.

7. Kicking because they should not be forgotten

The MSM may ignore them, but we should all remember just why we are fighting to stop this illegal war.

Please K&R!
