According to NPR (via Reuters) this morning:
U.S. toll in Iraq hits 4,000 as four soldiers killed
and at 7:05am:
Cost of the War in Iraq
$505,222,288,863
And the only thing worse than this is knowing that we still have another 10 months before the new administration takes over. Will the toll have reached 5,000 by then?
I pray we won’t have President McCain in office. You should, too.
[eta: The worst thing? Last night, as I was getting ready for bed, I thought about the toll that day and I realized just one roadside bomb could push us to 4k. I hate it when I’m right.]
