The American people have done a 180. This is due to Petraeus, it is due to our military, and it is due to George W. Bush. The Drive-Bys are not happy about this. The Associated Press. Listen to this story. How does this even become a story? I’m going to read this the way this guy was mouthing it when he wrote it. ‘Fewer people know how many US troops have died in the war in Iraq,’ even though we’ve done nothing but tell ’em! We’ve told ’em! We’ve counted every dead body! We’ve counted the injuries! — Damn it! Damn it! Damn it! — and more and more people have no idea. Screw this and screw you! (That’s the AP reporter as he’s reporting and typing the story.) ‘Only 28 percent correctly said that about 4,000 Americans have died in the war, according to a survey by the nonpartisan Pew Research Center. … Exit polls of voters in presidential primaries and many national surveys have shown the economy has displaced the war in recent weeks as the public’s choice as the nation’s top problem.’ I predicted that. I told you. They’re so mad! They are so mad; they are frothing. You don’t read ’em! You’re not paying attention to the death toll! That’s what they base their entire effort to kill the war and get defeat on — and you didn’t listen, because you didn’t care, because you had the whole thing in perspective. Ah, folks, it’s hard for me to contain my euphoria and my glee today.
