I'll point out to you ONCE AGAIN....that it was "as of Dec. 13....NOT the date [today's date] at the top of the page.
You sure can't 'get' that can you?
Secondly....when I click on your link there are NO total numbers posted. Only mention of the last three deaths.
Here's what I get from your link:

Linda: That's a big So What about Bush's "education." He ATTENDED those colleges; he didn't get EDUCATED there--or anywhere else. We've probably not had a more ignorant President in our history.

roadsmith.....So much for IGNORING me huh? Liberals can NEVER do what they say.
President Bush scored out HIGHER than kerry did in college....and you know how you're all always implying he was drunk and loaded....and he STILL beat kerry.
Secondly.....some people KNOW that common sense and CHARACTER/ETHICS/MORALS are much more important than intellectuals WITHOUT such positive qualities.
THIS President HAS all those admirable qualities...your guys DIDN'T. Probably why they didn't win also.
==================
I want to post this site so all can see how many good men we lost in other wars. How many CHOOSE to sacrifice their lives for our great Nation...and it's many GREAT causes.
Iraq and the ME are very important for our future. And that's why so many brave men and women have CHOOSEN to fight for the Iraqi who WANT freedom from these terrorists.
The stats that were claimed to be from CNN YESTERDAY were actually posted on CNN on September 03. Perhaps this person does not realize it is now December 14.
