While McCain calls us on our patriotism and walks through a market in heavily guarded fashion and claims "the surge" is working, our soldiers and the Iraqi people are killed in record numbers. This war will not stop unless we stand up and do something about it.In addition: "Bombings in different parts of the country Monday killed at least another 44 people and wounded more than 100, police said. Twin car bombings killed at least 19 outside Ramadi, about 60 miles west of Baghdad, and a suicide bomber detonated explosives inside a restaurant near Baghdad's fortified Green Zone, killing seven and injuring 14."
The number of American Soldiers Killed Now Stands at 3,332. While this number is outrageous, it pales in comparison to the number of Iraqis who lost their lives in this devastating war. And now the greatest refugee crisis in the world is not Darfur, as horrible a situation as that is, it is Iraq.

And ehre is a question: will the mainstream media ever get the courage and sense of justice to put on the front page the estimate of Iraqi civilians killed by the fighting, the bombs, the car-bombs, the stray bullets, since the beginning of this criminal war? Or will we only have sites like Iraqi Body Count to turn to? Cheney sickens me as he calls Harry Reid a defeatist for putting a timeline on the military? What is Dick smoking? What is he watching on CNN?
