I really love the holier than thou crowd on this board (Pana, Bam, Ziler, Trew) that can so easily turn a blind eye to the inhuman treatment of the Iraqi people by The Sadam regime over the course of 30 + years. Give me a fucking break.

To put it into perspective. Sure 150 American soldiers lost their life in a conflict Democrats don't believe in. 35,000 American citizens will lose their life this year to the flu.

It's laughable how much significance you attach to the death count in the Iraqi conflict which pales in comparison to death tolls in the US from car wrecks, suicide, murder, disease, accidental deaths, Burger King/McDonalds. Oh wait there is no way to gain political advantage harping on those. Silly me...
