I wish I could have gone to Berkeley and got myself an edyoucashun that left all that stuff out. It would have really lightened my undergrad load of depressing reading.
That's OK, doggie. We like you just the way you are. :-)

Hey, no fair comparing to Hitler and Pol Pot and those guys here! They weren't US Presidents.

HOWEVER, how about LBJ? The Vietnam War cost roughly 2.8 million lives.

LBJ ought to get at least 1/3 or 1/2 of those. That puts him far ahead of Bush.

Who wants to tell Lizzie?

Here we go (sort of) for US dead under LBJ: 29,000 not including 1964 and 1965.

But that does not include S. Vietnam, our allies in there, and the enemy, which Lizzie numbers did. Those would make that number 3-10 times bigger.

I think LBJ has Bush beat hands down.
