It's not a graph, it's a 2-number bar chart, complete with misleading scaling to go with the apples-to-oranges comparison. If you keep up your alleged "factual debate", I'll dig up the actual source, which I'm sure will be "objective", in the LindyBill sense of the word anyway.

You could add lots of bars! It would be fun to make charts comparing, oh, anything, with anything else! And not too time-consuming, if you forego the concept of "meaning."

Definitely send your bar chart to The Onion.

A WH spokesperson (a Homeland Security person, I think) said recently that the failure to capture Osama for all these years didn't represent failure, but was, rather, "a success that hasn't occurred yet." I'm not kidding. That happened. You can get behind that view, I'll bet.

I assume that eventually Osama will be captured, dead or alive. If dead, it may be from hardening of the arteries, at the rate this success is taking to occur. And "success" will be proclaimed! Oh, the pathos.

Such funny, cosmetizing, ways of expunging the pain or humiliation from reality. There really is pathos in the machinations of you and yours, except for the thousands and thousands of deaths part.
