May 2003 -> May 2006

Insurgents 3,000 -> 20,000
Furrin Fighters 100 -> 1,000

What I heard Murtha say during the Republican-lying fest. The cynicism of Republicans is unbelievable. They're lying daily about war, about death, about misery, about thieving and destruction.

Unbelievable.

You'd think with 120,000 or so US troops and supposedly double that in the Iraq police/military those 21,000 insurgents/jihadists types would have been contained long ago. Especially since they have the blank checkbook from the American people.

Unbelievable.

Is this incompetence, absurdity, an unwinnable situation, total chaos or what? What is going on in Iraq? What is going on in Afghanistan? This is an enormous drain on the US Treasury. Since Americans supposedly care about capitalist money spending, why don't they care about this?

No Republican should get another vote in this country until this can be cleaned up, cleared up and everyone is held accountable.

Unbelievable.
