What a disgusting coincidence:
This week, on Wednesday, March 19, we will mark the 5th anniversary of the U.S. invasion of Iraq.
Also this week, we might find ourselves marking the 4,000 death of a U.S. troop in the current Iraq war. As of this writing, the total number of U.S. troop deaths in the current Iraq war has reached 3,988. We're 12 deaths away from the 4,000 milestone.
Even with the reduction in U.S. troop deaths in recent months, any death is one death too many. We were tricked into this war, and our brave young men and women in uniform are paying the price for Bush's nonsensical agenda.
Sadly, with the ongoing infighting between the Clinton and Obama camps, the possibility of a McCain presidency grows stronger and stronger. Consider that McCain wants to keep us in Iraq for 100 years.
I haven't felt this anxious or desperate since the 2004 presidential election. I hope the results this time will be better.
