The minimum of a 30 to 1 Ratio continues

Sounds about right sadly. Iraqi deaths are generally reported only when they occur in bunches, or when a "quasi" governmental official is involved. But they die in large numbers daily. The 100,000 plus figure of the Lancet isn't so scorned anymore is it?

And today the ratio of Iraqi to American deaths continues to be monstrously high for the former, though it is tragic that the Bush Administration's orchestrated and predetermined war results in anyone dying...let alone no one being drummed out of office (or clearly defeated at the polls).

Today, in one incident 60 Iraqis, at least, die. In other parts of Iraq another pair of American Soldiers.
The American public, only now, frankly, more than six months too late, realizes that the ONE fucking thing they gave the Chimp some credit for is actually a lie like everything else.

I'm beginning to wonder if the press doesn't continue to sugar-coat everything in order to prevent actual civil unrest leading to the disruption of their profit streams (naive of me to even posit that this is ever from their thoughts).

No longer is it becoming an asshole here, an asshole there, we are run by an entire swarm of wankers.
