CNN’s The Situation Room is currently celebrating the 2000th death in Iraq and say no word about last week’s successful vote in Iraq. One has to go online to find out the news that the referendum passed:

The U.S. military announced the deaths of two Marines in fighting with insurgents last week in a village west of Baghdad, bringing to 1,999 the number of American service members killed since the war started in 2003, according to an Associated Press count.

Negative? it happenst to be the truth! I suspect the death toll is probably higher...How the Administration can call this any sort of victory is beyond me...these people will revert back to anarchy just as soon as the US Troops leave, dont you see that?
