did you hear much about the 655K dead Iraqis and 1.5m Iraqi refugees in the national media?

It got about 6 minutes of coverage maybe. Dead Iraqis aren't important to most Americans.

It you want to make it proportional to the US, multiply it be 12, which would make it around 7.8 million.

Instead, does the WH do anything, say anything, feel anything?

I commented to my wife a few days ago that Bush looks remarkably well after 6 years in the White House. It takes a toll on most Presidents, but for Bush it's a low stress, "Don't worry, be happy" kind of a term.
