Great Question!
I don't know how many will die. But I do have an idea on how we can pay for all these Americans dying since Bush is insulted with the idea that rich people should have to pay taxes. We could have a lottery where eveyone throws money in the hat and the person who guesses the exact number of deaths gets half the cash. That way, Americans can keep on dying an Bush's friends don't have to pay for it.
If Bush really cared about the troops we would be out of there yesterday. Bring them home Now! Every day longer that they stay is a crime. Every death more is a murder. Save a soldier. Vote anti-war candidates.

Well, lets put the losses in perspective.
over 50,000 in Vietnam not significant (noticeable shortage of men of military age)
To find a significant loss (noticeable shortage of military age men) due to a war you have to go back the the civil war. 620,000 dead in 4 years. 25% of all southern white males between the ages of 20 and 40 were killed. The loss was noticiable in the south, in the north which actually lost amost twice the number but had 7 times the population the loss was not as noticiable.
The same percentage of the current U.S. population would be equivalent to a war with 5,000,000 casualties.
No, I don't think we'll have that many. Nice try but you're points would work better on the ignorant. A group which must include yourself for posing such a question.

I fear it may well be in the millions if he is successful in starting world war 3, like I can see he is fully intent upon doing. He is a cold blooded reptile. Those guys don't know what remorse is. The Illuminati, who rule this world, are seeking to reduce human population by at least 2/3, and set up a New World Order police state.

A lot of people will disagree with you claiming the loss of lives shouldn't be for nothing. That is why the US Army is bound to stay in Iraq for another decade or two. How many years has it been already? I thought Bush claimed the job was done a long time ago, standing there on the 'US I don't know what' with the helmet in his hand, claiming victory. A little too soon I reckon. I think it will take many many lives before the soldiers can return to their own soil and start picking up their already ruined lives. How many of them will return traumatized and commit suicide afterwards because the war is still in their heads.

The leading cause of death for people in that "age generation" is motor vehicle accidents. Unless of course you live in Washington D.C., then murder is also a significant factor - From a purly statistical view, it is safer to be a soldier in Iraq than it is to be a young man in D.C.
While it may sound cold, and only looking at numbers, not individuals, our losses in Iraq are not that significant.
Oh, and speaking of treason, does the name Madame Nguyen Thi Binh mean anything to you? John "the poodle" Kerry knows who she is. According to her memoirs, her talks with Kerry convinced her to stay the course in Vietnam. 58,000 of our people lost their lives there. How many thousands of those can we lay at Kerrys feet?

unfortunately Young men and privet citizen have been killed in wars since time began. This does not make it right. But the human race does not seem to be suffering as it seems the population is growing plenty fast enough

Just as many as if the democrats were in office (considering they voted for the war as well) as a shortage of men is a stupid comment, we didnt have a shortage of men after the vietnam war, besides thanks to the democrats and liberals, their are more single parent families and families that have like 8 children just because thanks to liberal and democratic thinking we support them, I dont know about you but supporting my three children is enough I dont have to support the addicts on government funding as well......(P.S) read my answer and questions...I am neither a democrat or a republican, I hate all the politicians equally.....

You just see a part of the picture. For every soldier killed atleast four people are maimed, lose a limb.
