Stats again

Many MSM outlets, reporting on the number of deaths of American soldiers, would put the figure at close to 3,000. Wow, that's a lot.
But US casualties have actually been dropping (DoD data): 848 (2004), 846 (2005), and 768 (2006). Note of course that there are still about 2 weeks left in 2006, and this would mean 78 deaths more to equal 2005 figures (God forbid that there will be no more deaths).
