See? Liberals love death. They love misery and you can’t get more miserable than that.

It is interesting, however, that they claim they don’t want to see pictures of the WTC disaster, but they demand pictures of Abu Ghraib “torture”. It’s porn for liberals.

66 civilian deaths per day in Baghdad in May 2007. Very poor comparison, very telling of your mindset. Sad.

How about 115 civilian deaths per day in the U.S.? And that’s only in motor vehicle crashes. Very telling of your mindset. Blitheringly pathetic.

As Leon De Winter noted in today’s WSJ

So Americans manage to deal with the fact that tens of thousands of people will be killed each year on the roadways. But when it comes to the war against Islamic fascism, the nation may soon decide that 3,500 deaths over four years is too much. This for a great nation of 300 million inhabitants.

…If that is the case, then the United States will have begun to undermine the moral foundations spelled out in its own Declaration of Independence. If America is unable to carry out a war of its own choosing in defense of liberty because the cost of 3,500 lives is unacceptable, then it will soon be unable to maintain its position and power in the world.

While America is prepared to pay with the lives of 42,000 men, women and children each year because it needs to travel for work and pleasure, the sacrifice of 850 lives a year to defend the principle of universal freedom has thrown America into a state of profound introspection.

…Since the start of the war in Iraq, 170,000 people have died in car accidents in America. Remember to buckle up.

TGCpartner, who grew up in Nuevo Laredo told me of how the police/military will kill the entire family of drug lords to prevent anyone from picking up the business. He told me of one drug runner who was bumped off with his family at a party of some sort. Children, grandparents etc.

A few years ago, during Vicente Fox, we were with some friends at a cantina in Nuevo Laredo. We were sitting at a counter by the window. I kept seeing soldiers walking by or riding in Deuce 1/2s. I asked our friends what they were doing and they said the soldiers were patrolling for drug smugglers. They said that more than likely, if they found one, they’d shoot him on the spot. Naturally, I wanted to be sure we weren’t sitting near anybody else.

I think you’re saying:
1) Mexico has big problems with drug gangs.
2) Which means it’s reasonable for us to ask who is coming across our border.
3) Our media shows their bias in not reporting it, even though it’s as big (in terms of death toll) as many other stories out there.
4) Our media is also failing to report on murders in New Orleans.
5) Why aren’t the Democrats worried about the situation in New Orleans?
6) Nancy Pelosi sucks.

I agree. But where I’m going with this: honestly, I had to struggle a little to piece it together.
