I was profoundly disappointed, yet not at all surprised that last month Pew released a survey showing only 28% of Americans estimated that there had been 4,000 military deaths in Iraq. Our collective short attention span has moved on. That will happen I suppose in a historic Presidential election cycle, an economic downturn, and a MSM that sucks.

I even catch myself taking my eye off things. My wife has deployed twice now, once in Iraq in '04, once stateside, now. My daughter is in the Air Force, so I was stunned to learn that we have lost 20 brave souls in April already...and for what?
