More than 300 U.S. soldiers have died in  the war in Afghanistan since May 15, 2009, the day when the first major wave of new troops ordered by President Barack Obama arrived in the country.

That is to be expected when engaging the enemy.

Certainly some in GOP quarters aren't planning on instituting an Afghanistan Body Count as part and parcel of some anti-Obama anti-war campaign, are they?

The rules of engaguement are more strict than any time in the past.

Does this benefit us?

Does this cause us to suffer casualties we could have avoided?

since they didn't do it with bush why would they do it with Obama yet the ones that did it with Bush aren't doing it with Obama and that of course says a lot now doesn't it?

The Cybercast News Service was launched on June 16, 1998 as a news source for individuals, news organizations and broadcasters who put a higher premium on balance than spin and seek news that?s ignored or under-reported as a result of media bias by omission.

Study after study by the Media Research Center, the parent organization of CNSNews.com, clearly demonstrate a liberal bias in many news outlets ? bias by commission and bias by omission ? that results in a frequent double-standard in editorial decisions on what constitutes "news."

In response to these shortcomings, MRC Chairman L. Brent Bozell III founded CNSNews.com in an effort to provide an alternative news source that would cover stories that are subject to the bias of omission and report on other news subject to bias by commission.

CNSNews.com endeavors to fairly present all legitimate sides of a story and debunk popular, albeit incorrect, myths about cultural and policy issues.

CNSNews.com has a full staff of credentialed journalists at its world headquarters in Alexandria, Virginia, staffs full time news bureaus in Jerusalem and the Pacific Rim, and works with credentialed correspondents in London, Paris, Moscow and Nairobi. In addition to news, CNSNews.com is proud to present a full slate of commentaries by some of the brightest minds and sharpest wits in the nation, and a full stable of cartoonists to provide you with a morning political chuckle.

CNSNews.com is a division of the Media Research Center, a not-for-profit 501 (c)(3) organization. Like National Public Radio and the Public Broadcasting System, CNSNews.com is able to provide its services and information to the public at no cost, thanks to the generous support of our thousands of donors and their tax-deductible contributions. However, unlike NPR or PBS, CNSNews.com does not accept any federal tax money for its operations.

oh that CNS yes they are doing great things these days. Brent Bozell is a good guy.

And apparently he thinks the Afghanistan Body Count is a good idea.

keeping track is far different from using the information as an anti-Obama anti-war campaign.

it would be nice to know when we get to body count levels equaling Vietnam or maybe Guadalcanal.

I got the distinct impression Bozell and company were placing these deaths at the feet of Obama just as the The Sheehanians did with Bush

Gee, what nice donors.  Is there a list of them posted anywhere that shows how much each has contributed to this fine, public-spirited enterprise?

seems fair enough if obama is playing politics with the lives of our military.
