This invasion has cost well over $1 trillion and add $150 to take care of returning vets and more to replace the equipment that is being used up according to Harvard U experts.
More catastrophic injuries now than other wars because doctors are keeping them alive after brain injuries, and such

NO! They want to make sure our all volunteer army gets caught in the middle of a blood bath, with no discernable targets to shoot at.
How do our soldiers know who is an insurgent, who is Al-Queda, who is a Baathist, or who is just a guy trying to get home to feed his wife and kids?
They don't know. That's why STAY THE COURSE is the same as MORE OF THE SAME: needless death.

we need to stay the course, but we need to take the gloves off. The lesson we should have learned from veitnam is the lesson we learned from WWII, fight to win. The political correctness BS in america is what is killing our troops. If they get shot at from a mosque that mosque needs to become a parking lot. We are not killing the enemy because we are to afraid what people think about us. As far as the deaths in that survey, they do not take in account people die of natural causes and other accidents. The iraqi causlties are mainly from other iraqies and imported terrorist from Iran and syria. Until the political correctness bs and the liberal media wakes up and realize we are in a war we are destined to replay vietnam and god help the majority of the iraqies who want us there because they know what lies ahead.

Not "staying the course" is an admission of wrong by the administration - this is why the continued mantra, regardless of the form.
Tom4bucs - Don't compare military deaths in Iraq to current death rate in ANY American city - you're comparing apples to oranges. More appropriate would be to compare American police deaths with military deaths in Iraq, if you want to make these analogies. Compare civilian to civilian casualties. Stop using slanted statistics to further your own bias.

there's a distinction between Wars of Neccessity and Wars of decision. The Korean and Vienam decision yet decrease than vast tension to combat the Evil Communism that the GOP is so petrified of even now. yet there is not any argument here I kinda consider the Stephanie around good judgment woman.

No ,they want to stay the course so they can blame the Democrats for bringing the troops home and ending the madness. The Sunni's and Shia are going to have their bloodbath no matter how long we stay there

ahhh, so it is finally admitted! That survey about 650,000 deaths must be wrong, because that averages at 537 Iraqi civillian deaths a day. Which can not be possible since this is the most violent time, or so I have heard..

In October, military deaths were 60 per 100,000 soldiers.
In Washington, DC, the civilian deaths were 80.5 per 100,000 citizens.
Does that mean the Democrats should withdraw from Washington?
