Since the start of the war on terror in Iraq and Afghanistan , the sacrifice has been enormous. In the time period from the invasion of Iraq in March 2003 through now, we have lost a total of 3,140 soldiers. As tragic as the loss of any soldier is, consider this: below is a list of deaths of soldiers while actively serving in the armed forces from 1980 through 2004:



FIGURES ARE CONFIRMED ON DEPARTMENT OF DEFENSE SITE

1980 2,392

1981 2,380

1982 2,319

1983 2,465

1984 1,999

1985 2,252

1986 1,984

1987 1,983

1988 1,819

1989 1,636

1990 1,507

1991 1,787

1992 1,293

1993 1,213

1994 1,075

1995 1,040

1996 974

1997 817

1998 827

1999 796

2000 758

2001 891

2002 999

2003 1,410 534*

2004 1,887 900*

2005 919*

2006 920*



* Figures are Operation Iraqi Freedom and Operation Enduring Freedom fatalities only



Does this really mean that the loss from the two current conflict in the Middle East are LESS than the loss of military personnel during King Clinton's presidency? Were we at war?



Now, are you confused when you look at these figures? I was. Especially when I saw that in 1980, during the reign of President "Nobel Peace Prize" himself, there were 2,392 military fatalities of U.S. soldiers.



What this clearly indicates is that our media and our liberal politicians pick and choose. The choose NOT to present the facts.

Another fact our left media and politicians like to slant is that these brave men and women losing their lives are minorities. The latest census shows the following:



European decent (white) 69.12%

Hispanic 12.5%

African American 12.3%

Asian 3.7%

Native American 1.0%

Other 2.6%



Now, the fatalities over the past three years in Iraqi Freedom are:



European decent (white) 74.31%

Hispanic 10.74%

African American 9.67%

Asian 1.81%

Native American 1.09%

Other 2.33%



Please, don't just take my word, see for yourself:

The next time you are subject to left-wing propaganda , you are equipped with the facts. Pass the facts on...


Also, where is the outcry regarding all of the unborn babies that are killed every day in this country.
Where is the outcry of all the fatalities from druken drivers each day in this country.
What about the murder of little children by depraved men and women who should not be allowed to live. The judges let them off practically scott free.

Where is the outcry, Americans?

How is it that Politics, in and of itself, can change what a man/woman knows and says…
Something is drastically wrong with our politics………

Don’t pass this up; consider it a documentary on the results of politics on the integrity of good people.
