Morford: What Bush meant to say....
From Mark Morford's newsletter. The title sums it right up.
Hey Suckers Suck My Bogus Suckwad War Ha Ha Suckers Whee Pleading for patience, Shrub said the US will "have to remain tough" in Iraq despite attacks on U.S. soldiers that killed at least two more Americans on Thursday, for a grand total of 70 U.S. soldiers killed *after* ShrubCo declared the war essentially over, isn't that nice, oh you simpering jackass. A group of arms control experts accused the administration of misrepresenting intelligence information to justify the war. "It's going take more than 90 to 100 days for people to recognize the great joys of freedom and the responsibilities that come with freedom," Bush actually mumbled, as the universe somehow restrained itself from striking him dead on the spot with seventeen bolts of lightning and a very well-placed meteor. "It's very important for us to stay the course, and we will stay the course."
Translation: We lied about everything, you know we lied about everything, we don't really give a damn that you know we lied about everything, and we're gonna stay in Iraq for years in not decades because my goddamn petrochem and military and political cronies are positively orgasming over the newfound power and money to be made at your expense so please just shut the hell up about all the flagrant lying and the fraud and the utter ass-polishing shamelessness with which we are gutting this nation, OK?

So let's see. That's 70 US soldiers killed since Knucklehead claimed victory on, when, May 1st. That makes it 72 days since "victory" was declared.
From my earlier comments:
# of bodybags (since "victory") = 70
# of days since "victory" = 72
Therefore, the avg bodybag/day index = 0.97. That's awfully close to the 1.00 that I speculated is the tolerance level for our amnesiac fellow citizens.
Morbid? I'll bet you my atrophied paycheck that the guys at the DoD are doing calcuations not too different from those above.

Wait a minute, that 70 dead figure seems high. That can't be right. How many US troops have been killed (from all causes) since May 1st? UK troops don't count toward the total.
