Originally posted by RT and his SE: And anyone who doesn't see it your way is labeled and shouted down because to think any other way than your way would be Communist um...I mean... un-American. The scorched earth policy on everything that the Conservatives on this board take in every one of these threads is so "cut and paste" by now that it just doesn't interest as many people anymore. So shut your partisan pie hole and say a prayer for the soldiers and their families which I think is why this thread was started in the first place!
Perhaps, but really I can't think of a positive reason to count the dead. It is either a morbid fascination or an attempt to use a number as a threshold that should disgust us. I don't need a number to be grateful for the efforts and sacrifices of our soilders and their families. History will count the dead and judge our efforts, for better or worse.
The cut and pasters have a lot of time on thier hands, I don't read half of it, either.
BTW, last week's protesters might be a bunch of "Communists"...one of the NY papers did a survey of the GOP Convention protesters, and the dominant political philosophy was "socialist". Did you notice the lack of pro-Kerry signs carried by the marchers?
