2000 and counting

here's the front page of the daily news today. 2000. that's the number of american soldiers killed in iraq. actually, using 'american' is a misnomer, since most of these brave soldiers come from different ethnicities. in fact, some of them are not even u.s. citizens yet. sigh.

i've personally covered a number of filipino-american soldiers who were slain in iraq and talking with their wives/parents/relatives is heart-wrenching.

when will bush realize that he is essentially killing all the few good men that this country has, in the name of his fight against terrorism. it's sad, indeed.

shock and awe. with the rising number of dead americans, who's in shock now?
