The Cost of War

I often wondered how long it would be before Bush was responsible for more Iraqi deaths then Saddam. Now it looks like we know:


Study: War blamed for 655,000 Iraqi deaths


This is about 2.3 percent of their population. Relative to our population, this would be the equivalent of 7.5 million Americans. While seeing the cost in dollars ($333 billion and counting) is bad enough, seeing the cost in lives is mind numbing.
