Yes, it is true. The Surge shows continued signs of working. The latest sign? US troop deaths in October are way down compared to the previous month. Here is the skinny from the AP via Yahoo!News:The monthly toll of U.S. service members who have died in Iraq is on track to being the lowest in nearly two years, with at least 37 troop deaths recorded as of Tuesday...At least 37 American service members have died so far in October, nearly a quarter from non-combat causes. Among them were three soldiers killed Tuesday when a bomb exploded as they patrolled southeast Baghdad, the military said.
It is the lowest number since 32 troops died in March 2006 and the second-lowest since 20 troop deaths in February 2004, according to an Associated Press count based on military figures.
That would be the second consecutive drop in monthly figures, after 65 Americans died in September and 84 in August.
Hmmm....seems like things are turning around. Imagine how we would be feeling if Nancy Pelosi hadn't destabilized the Turkey situation and decided to help instigate hostilities there by putting forth a resolution condemning a country for a regime that no longer exists!
Imagine how we would be feeling if the MSM would actually report and not just spin. Imagine how we would feel if we heard about the hospitals and schools built, if we heard about how new friendships are being built. Imagine if we heard that instead of the same tired old stuff....
The tragic part? All of the things I described are really happening, just the MSM and the Dems don't want you to see it or hear about it...because they like it when you are misinformed, just like Stalin and Hitler loved to misinform their people to get them to support stupid and ill-conceived ideas....
