Media Trumpeting Another Grim Milestone

The blatantly anti-war wire services are salivating and drooling over yet another “grim milestone” today (searching Google News for the phrase turns up 1,233 results), as military deaths in Iraq reached 4,000—and the most disgustingly ghoulish example is this Associated Press Flash movie, which begins with: “During the terrorist attacks on the World Trade Center on September 11, 2001, 2,973 people died.”
You see where they’re headed with that, of course: Military funerals.

With this new magic number, bottom feeder Michael Moore is getting back into the game, too. Sent this morning to his mailing list:
So? … A Note from Michael Moore

Friends,
It would have to happen on Easter Sunday, wouldn’t it, that the 4,000th American soldier would die in Iraq. Play me that crazy preacher again, will you, about how maybe God, in all his infinite wisdom, may not exactly be blessing America these days. Is anyone surprised?
4,000 dead. Unofficial estimates are that there may be up to 100,000 wounded, injured, or mentally ruined by this war. And there could be up to a million Iraqi dead. We will pay the consequences of this for a long, long time. God will keep blessing America.
