Four more Americans in uniform were killed today in Iraq. Four still anonymous soldiers, whose families soon will know the depths of grief that 3996 families before them have been borne down to. Now 4000 Americans are dead in this war.Another 308 coalition soldiers are killed as well. Four thousand three hundred and eight families sundered, never to be made whole again.Surely a milestone in this unending disaster, though one that the Iraqis themselves passed five years ago this week. Today, alone, at least another 60 Iraqis, mostly civilians, were torn apart by blasts. Their families too grieve, along with untold hundreds of thousands of Iraqi families before them.It sickens the heart, the carnage that George W. Bush unleashed upon both our countries. No death is insignificant. The deaths of these four souls are just as lamentable as all those that have preceded, and all those that will surely follow while American forces remain in the midst of this civil war.
When will the President apologize for what he has wrought?
