By TODD PITMAN, Associated Press Writer

BAGHDAD, Iraq - The number of U.S. troops killed in Iraq (news - web sites) has topped 1,500, an Associated Press count showed Thursday after the military announced the deaths of three Americans, while car bombs targeting Iraqi security forces killed at least four people in separate attacks.

Ohhh our lovely president!

Yeah - every single bad thing in the world is the fault of George W. Bush. If it wasn't for him, it wouldn't be like this.

For a war, the death toll is really low. People always die in war. I'm not saying that their deaths aren't meaningful, but it isn't anybody's fault, but Hussein's.

Right on. yes, that was a ridiculous statement. Everything is NOT Bush's fault, not even CLOSE. People die in war. You have to understand that.

Exactly. The death toll is low for a war. This stuff happens in war, especially against a group of people armed with an evil ideology of hate and the belief that 72 virgins await them in Heavan once they commit a terrorist act. This is a new kind of enemy.

RM, can you please read the topic, I already mentioned to RBgirl it was a joke, he was being sarcastic.

Yes, it does. You need to show where the information is from, so people can judge if it is biased or not. Also it shows that someone isn't making it up.

"Dadl taw?" And to clarify what I mean, I said "Right on." Meaning I agreed with his sarcasm.
