Iraq Soldier Deaths Pass 1000

Eagerly anticipated by terrorists and journalists alike, CNN is just one news outlet trumpetting that soldier deaths in Iraq just passed the 1K mark. Still one of the most successful operations of all time, but we don't care because 1000 was hit. Why? I am reminded of an old Dilbert cartoon about Y2K, where Dogbert successfully scared everyone about the year 200, because it is BIG and ROUND. BIG AND ROUND!!!!

Gimmee a break folks. This is no more or less significant than death 1, death 10, death 999, death 1001, or death 723. Death is death and it is horrible. But it is War's primary product. We knew that going in.
