1 million civilians killed
In Iraq and Afghanistan over a million civilians have been killed since 2001. They were not killed by Iran, Libya or Syria. They were not killed in a civil war. They were massacred by the United States government.
The United Nations estimates that there are about 4.5 million displaced Iraqis — more than half of them refugees — or about one in every six citizens, 1-2 million widows and 5 million orphans. All a direct result of the U.S.-led invasion.
That number is astounding.

Since 1978, the price of tuition at US colleges has increased over 900 percent, 650 points above inflation. To put that number in perspective, housing prices, the bubble that nearly burst the US economy, then the global one, increased only fifty points above the Consumer Price Index during those years.

Just a friendly reminder that the Qu’ran isn’t the only holy book the ignorant take literally.

I’m confused about whether Iowa’s “sick days taken” means we take more or fewer…I’m guessing the latter.
I don’t like to reblog The Daily What, but Kentucky is best armed. That’s certainly something special, isn’t it?
