In Basra, Iraq there is one person killed every hour. They are right, this is not a civil war. Nothing "civil" about it!

One person is being assassinated in Basra every hour, as order in Iraq's second city disintegrates, according to an Iraqi Defence Ministry official.

And a quarter of all Iraqi children suffer from malnutrition, a survey of 20,000 households by the Iraqi government and Unicef says.

Insurgent attacks on American and British troops are also proving more lethal, with 44 US soldiers and seven British killed so far this month, and with daily losses exceeding anything seen for more than a year.

What have we done? This terrible situation should weigh heavily on the heart of everyone who voted for George W. Bush. This criminal war is your war!

Tonight when you kiss you children you can take a moment to ask their forgiveness for saddling them with this incredible mess.

Oh, and don't vote anymore. You suck at it!
