Sad numbers

With all the grandstanding on the anniversary of 9/11, there were some important numbers that went unmentioned by the administration: 3015 (the number of Americans killed in the Iraq war) and 20,000 (the approximate number of Americans wounded in the war). You'll note that both of these numbers are higher than the number of deaths in the 9/11 attacks, the event that this administration has done everything in its power to use as the justification for the war in Iraq, even though, as we all know, there was no connection between the two.

RJ Eskow has more.
