There are two ways of looking at this story: 1) A few more troops in Iraq wouldn't hurt; and 2) QUAGMIRE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I think the second is what Vern intended. (Note the clever wording: "Almost ten" soldiers wounded a day. Ten looks far worse than, say, 9.4, or whatever the actual number is.)
Do you suppose the reason the military won't give you the numbers, Vern, is because you folks yearn for another Vietnam, and will play tricks with statistics and language for that cause?
