Total coalition forces dead: 307
Total Iraqi Dead: 700,000+

Number of days since Baby Doc said he'd get Osama Bin Laden "dead or alive": 2340
Number of days since the illegal occupation of Iraq began: 1801
Number of days since "Mission Accomplished": 1743
Number of days between Pearl Harbor and the end of WWII: Only 1347

Number of days that the the Vice President has NOT shot a man in the face: 729
Number of days that the Bush Twins are still not pregnant with baste-'em-or-waste-'em Snowflake babies: 568.

It is still 344 days until the end of the BFEE Maladministration.

UPDATE: I heard today that Shooter Cheney is spending the weekend back at the scene of the crime, that tame-dove "sport shooting" game ranch down in Texas. I guess the poor old man who got shot in the face isn't going this time. "Unavoidable conflict" in his scheduling. Oh, well, we can always hope that he's going to take someone like Scalia with him, Scalia who didn't have any problems going fishing with Cheney at the same time a court case involving Cheney was coming in front of the Supremes.

And haven't Scalia and Cheney been longtime friends? But now they can't even go fishing or duck hunting together? The case in front of the Supreme Court had to do with a point of law... was the energy task force meeting public record or not. It's not like Cheney was going to be frog-marched to jail (why does that term sound familiar?) if he lost the case.

That's like saying that refs can't be friends with sport stars or policemen can only be friends with other policemen.



Or... how about our lawmakers being influenced by special interest groups?

Hey Farns, why no mention of McCain's son Jimmy going to Iraq? Not getting much play in the MSM is it?
