"8,000 deserted from Iraq under Bush. Exact same meaning."

No...completely different meaning. From the article that YOU linked...

"Opposition to the war prompts a small fraction of desertions, says Army spokeswoman Maj. Elizabeth Robbins. "People always desert, and most do it because they don't adapt well to the military," she says. The vast majority of desertions happen inside the USA, Robbins says. There is only one known case of desertion in Iraq."

Now...read the entire article before you make an idiot out yourself again....then, apologize to the thread.
