Think on that for a minute, more than one million men, women, and children dead as a direct result of Georges little adventure… it’s something the surge is working back patters will work really hard at discounting and minimizing.

    You’re kidding us right? Its an opinion poll. They didn’t ask for death certificates or any other sort of proof.

    Think on that for a minute or two.

    No Sean, it was not an opinion poll, it was a research survey – I’m not gonna go into the details regarding the difference between an “opinion poll” and a “research survey”, you were smart enough to figure out how to set up a blog so I’m gonna assume you’re smart enough to use Google and figure it out for yourself.
