It's you that are wrong.

You so consumed with proving Mr. Bush right you would have us all ignore the most important part of the "big picture" and that is that our American soldiers are dying in Iraq - all in pursuit of weapons of mass destruction that did not exist.

First, the concept that the military casualties are the number one factor in a military effort is utterly wrong, if not downright bizarre, and any war fought on that basis is doomed, for whatever purpose. The fact that a few soldiers are being killed during a war effort is a staggeringly stupid reason for surrender. It's also an unpleasant truth that you and many others who are pounding on the casualty figures, especially in the national press, are encouraging the attacks, however you might protest otherwise.

I'm also getting a bit tired of the media trick of repeating the same casualties over three or four days to make them sound like more.

Second, please reread Kay's statement.
