Look what we got for 3,000 dead

What a triumph! Our new Iraqi puppets are going to execute three of their former crazy leaders who were such a “clear and growing threat” to us peace-loving Americans. And it only cost us 3,000 dead soldiers, 20,000 permanently maimed and about $400 billion so far. That's 1,000 dead, 7,000 hideously wounded and a $130 billion each. Well done, President Bush. History will surely record how proud you made us. Only one problem: At that price we will run out of soldiers and dollars long before the Middle East runs out of of real, not to mention fake, threatening crazies. The better news is that we will run out of the George Bushes and the Dick Cheneys first. Donald Connolly, Linwood - Atlantic City Press, November 13, 2006
