Iraq Body Count

Admittedly, it's not very accurate, that there is a high margin of error. The headline leads with "600,000" as the estimated count. Six hundred thousand dead Iraqis since the 2003 American invasion to oust Saddam Hussein, retribution for 9/11, and to remove WMDs. That's 600,000 dead people in exchange for one lunatic who's "fair" trial is questionable. That's 600,000 dead Iraqis for WMDs that never existed. That's 600,000 dead Iraqis for an act of terrorism that they had nothing to do with.

Oh yeah, the estimate....... According to the NYTimes, "But it is an estimate and not a precise count, and researchers acknowledged a margin of error that ranged from 426,369 to 793,663 deaths." Well, excuse those who complain that 600,000 is inaccurately high. The lower end is just above 426 thousand, and climbing. That's then 426,000 for getting one man, for WMDs that never existed, and retribution for an act of terrorism that they had nothing to do with.

Oh my freakin' god!

Here we are, a few weeks before midterm elections, and these republican dirtbags are complaining that the estimate is too high; that it's politically driven. So, I'd like to know what they feel is an acceptable number for this Iraqi invasion folly. Is 100,000 dead Iraqis acceptable for taking down one man? Is 100,000 dead Iraqis an acceptable count for WMD's that never existed, or for retribution against an act of terrorism for which they had no culpability? Is 200,000 an acceptable number? 50,000? What? I'd like to know.

Of course, let us not forget that "axis of evil" notion perpetrated by the dubya regime. Remember that? The countries they included were Iran, North Korea and Iraq. So, they attacked Iraq, the ONLY GODDAMM COUNTRY WITH NO NUCLEAR CAPABILITY. That, or course, means that they attacked the one country that could not fight back. Why coudn't they fight back? Well, because the UN sanctions had already crippled Saddam's ability to create WMD's. The neocon dirtbags went after the one country that was the weak link in their axis. All it accomplished was to get those other axis nations to better build up their nuclear arsenals in case the US had notions of going after them. The neocon cockroaches have created a more dangerous world by fueling the fires of hatred against us, and by resurrecting the nuclear arms race.



It's that simple, really.

For those of you repukes who continue to support this evil dirtbag neocon regime, I salute you. I salute your stupidity. I salute your ignorance. I salute your dumbass bullshit asswipe notion that the republicans are the good guys. And, I'll be celebrating over your dismay when impeachment of these neocon crooks begins. I'll be celebrating when they're convicted of war crimes, crimes against humanity, and for breaking the laws of this great nation and its Constitution to empower themselves to accomplish the demise of what was at least a somewhat sane government before they took the reigns (pun intended).

Fuck all of you republican dirtbags who support, against all evidence of wrongdoing, a government that has gone awry. Fuck you all. I hate anyone who can support this neocon insanity. I hate you all for supporting the regime that will make our children pay for these dirtbags' selfishness, with either their taxes to pay the deficits, and for their lives when the bombs start falling. Your support of the neocons have set our world back to the cold war days. Thanks for fucking nothing.
