Death and Refugees are abundant with Iraq. I think this is common in war zones.

Hundreds of thousands is not an exaggeration at all.

I think they should be, but I doubt they will. They are both too connected to people with power. I'd like to see it happen though.

I should have expected as much. They are rich.
Our country seems to look the other way when rich people get themselves in trouble. Perhaps I mis- spoke. Our legal system can be bought. Remember O.J.? Or perhaps Bush/Cheney & company were just making honest, human errors, repeatedly. Maybe the 935 falsehoods made by this administration which directly led this country to declare war on a country that WAS NOT threatening the USA were completely justified, especially when you consider how well that all worked out. If Ron Paul miraculously gets the GOP nomination, he gets my vote.

Bush and Cheney will probably end up getting huge speaking fees and write best selling books of their versions of how it all went down. And get even richer. Perhaps they can share some of that wealth with the families of the fallen soldiers in IRAQ, they sent to die,
under their false pretenses.
Truth, Justice and the American Way. No wait.... that was Superman. My bad.

Hundreds of thousands? Probably a bit high.
