The Iraq War is Getting Worse

The Iraq war is getting worse. How do we know? There are statistics that prove it at ICasualties and the right wing media has offered a distraction.

From ICasualties we have the following statistics:
U.S. Deaths Confirmed By The DoD: 3247
Reported U.S. Deaths Pending DoD Confirmation: 10
Total 3257

Secondly, the right wing media has tried to create a distraction. Instead of focusing on the war, troop deaths, and the Democratic plan for withdrawal, the righties want us to look at Rosie O'Donnell. (Don't look at the war, look at the liberal lady over here.) Right wing talk show buffoon, Bill O'Reilly, has suggested that ABC and The View fire Rosie O'Donnell. Does O'Reilly want us to take him seriously? O'Reilly's program is losing major viewers (his average viewer is 75yrs old), while The View is gaining more and more viewers. I think O'Reilly is trying to create a diversion while the war gets worse and he is trying to punish Rosie for her liberal opinions.

The View is part of the entertainment division of ABC. The View is gaining viewers because the program allows the hosts to speak their views. I would rather watch The View than listen to some other show on who is the baby's daddy or how to remove ink from the carpet. The View is lively, thought-provoking, and relevant. Bill O'Reilly, Rush Limpball, and the rest of the righties should mind their own business and concentrate on real news not fake right wing news.

Finally, O'Really and Limpball shouldn't attack Rosie. She is a Mom, and a person who contributes her time and money to many charities. Besides, her views are probably a lot closer to the opinions of real Americans. Those two pompous right wing a**es do nothing but fill their own pockets.
