Theres 30,000 names worth remembering on that day too. All the US and coalition servicemen and women that died or were injured since we invaded Iraq.

And an unknown number of Iraqis that have died since then and we will never know their names. But they are remembered.

Bump....

Your vote counts.

Since theres 2800 that cant vote anymore thanks to bush.
 
Every Republican is in trouble this fall. Exactly because of the most horrendously stupid military blunder in American history. Yay Bush!
 
I'm sure Kucinich would have been a great president.:rolleyes:

BTW: Robert Byrd's stone cold dead too.

And fucking Kennedy. Making the band "The Dead Kennedys" aptly named.
 
Iraq remains liberated.




Iran is running death squads in Syria, but Momar and Mubarak had to go...
