Casualties in Iraq
The mainstream media breathlessly informs us every chance they get that over 1900 soldier have died in Iraq.

A recent visitor took umbrage with with my Religious Linkage for Monday post last week. Part of that post was a Worldnet article called “10 Reasons I’ve Grown to Despise the Left.” The visitor disagreed with the post and cited all sorts of things wrong with right wingers.
