While Rummy Is Busy Defending His Post, Four More GIs KIA Added To The Official List of Dead Soldiers Who Can No Longer Vote

Four more KIA (two Marines and two Army GIs) were added to the long list over at defenselink dot mil. Has there ever been a time when the Invasion of Iraq has been worth the investment? Doubt it. The ROI has never been worth the outlay.

Here we go again. After a slight 'lull'. They're not 'lulled'. They're 'dead'.
