Too Damn Long

Remember all the controversy caused Nightline devoted an entire program to honoring Americans who had been killed in the Iraq war? (A tribute that was only controversial among conservatives, by the way.) Well, it’s hard to believe that was almost three years ago now. If that same program were to be run tonight, Nightline would have to run for 2 hours and 41 minues.

  1. They would prefer that we remember our KIA troops as nameless, faceless numbers.

    How patriotic.

  3. And it’s only going to go up from here…sickening. I wonder how long it would take to do a similar program for even the “low” estimate of 35,000 Iraqis killed since the start of the war?
