And they're worried about Iraq

We've lost 4,000 soldiers in Iraq over a five year period. Each and every one of those deaths tragic. But what about the loss of life in this country? You know, those places where "progressives" govern?

Excerpt

Chavez Clarke, 18, had spent this past Saturday taking catch-up classes so he could graduate on time. As he left a South Side high school that afternoon, he was fatally shot, in broad daylight and in plain view of other students. His death marked a grim end to a week when police and school officials had stepped up their efforts to combat a spike in killings of public school students.

The day before, an eighth-grader at a North Side school was shot and killed.

In all, 20 Chicago public school students have been fatally shot so far this school year -- seven in March alone -- compared with 24 the year before, said spokesman Mike Vaughn. Including those who died in non-gun violence, 22 students have been killed this year, and 30 last school year. School officials could not provide precise figures, but said that killings had increased markedly over past years.

Now class, let's go out on a limb and guess what party runs the Chicago City schools?

If you guess democrats, you get to move to the front of the class; just duck to avoid gun fire.

Let's face it you can't find a republican in the Chicago City schools with a search warrant, a pack of blood hounds and Dog the Bounty Hunter.

Where is the "progressive" outrage over this genocide?

We lose eight thousand black men a year in this country, the KKK, in it's hay day, never came close to that number; and what's happened in Iraq doesn't even warrant a back page story compared to this carnage.

Which party is truly responsible for those deaths?
