Next stop: The Tipping Point
This article appeared in The Boston Globe, and while it deals with a large demonstration of Shiites in Baghdad, there is one detail that says we are about to hit the Tipping Point in the Iraq war.
The U.S. military reported a soldier died of a non-hostile gunshot wound, bringing the number of soldiers killed since major combat was declared over to 138. A total of 276 soldiers have died in combat or by accident since the war began March 20.
Notice the numbers? We have gotten to the point where the dead before Whistle Ass' Aircraft Carrier adventure number the same amount as after our 'mission' was 'accomplished.'
Actually, the poll numbers started trending down a couple of days ago. But as the number of post-photo-op dead surpass those who died in the actual 'war,' it will mean more trouble for The Thug Cabal.
