25,000 Dead or Wounded Americans

According to Newsweek, there have been 25,000 dead or wounded Americans in Iraq. Does the President care or will he just let things go on until the next president is elected?

I heard a statistic last night that said the Marines make up 29% of the casualties in Iraq but they only make up 16% of the fighting force. Why? Is someone checking on this?

130 Ohioans have been killed in Iraq: 15 in 2003, 28 in 2004, 60 in 2005, and 27 in 2006. Can someone please stop the bloodshed? My heart aches for the families and friends of these young men and women, as well as for those who have been wounded.
