As you may have noticed, Bush has now killed more Americans in “Operation Enduring Freedom” than Osama did on 9/11. And the beat goes on.

But at least we freed Iraq from that torturing, murdering pig, Saddam Hussein. You’ve got to give the warhogs in the White House credit for that, right? A nation turns its grateful eyes to you, George, except for those unfortunates whose eyes have been gouged out:

BAGHDAD, Sept. 20 — A United Nations report released Wednesday says that 5,106 people in Baghdad died violent deaths during July and August, a number far higher than reports that have relied on figures from the city’s morgue …

Bodies found in Baghdad, the report added, often show signs of torture that include “acid-induced injuries and burns caused by chemical substances, missing skin, broken bones (back, hands and legs), missing eyes, missing teeth and wounds caused by power drills or nails.”
