Obama Sad Milestone: 100 Military Deaths

The latest announcements mark a very sad milestone for the new President. Two soldiers from Illinois, President Obama’s home state, marked the 100th and 101st military deaths since President Barack H. Obama became Commander in Chief. Those two soldiers were identified as 21-year-old Omar Albrak and 23-year-old Lukasz Saczek.
You can see the entire list of names of soliders who have died since January 20th, 2009 by clicking here.
The controversial “Obama Death Count” now stands at 101. ConservativeAmerican.org keeps the count, which it freely admits is “absurd.” That’s the whole point. Let us explain with some bits and pieces from the “Obama Death Count” original post:
Remember how very important the liberals and Bush-haters thought it was to tell us every day how many soldiers had died “Because of him?” They chanted their stupid “Bush Lied! People Died” and marked each “milestone” in the death count with news releases and celebrations. Each time the number grew, it gave them more “ammo” and hatred for President Bush … They never counted the millions of people Bush freed from tyranny and terrorism. They didn’t even count how many minorities or Muslims he freed. They only counted the deaths. To point out to them the error in their ways, we have created THE OBAMA DEATH COUNT. You can find it on the right of our page. We just want to see if they will scream and chant, “OBAMA LIED! PEOPLE DIED!” After all, didn’t he say he would end the war? That’s a broken promise….Or, is it a lie? … we’ll leave the absurd ‘Obama Death Count’ up to point out how absurd their Bush death count was. It will also draw attention to the hypocrisy and lies of the anti-war crowds. Republican war is bad. Democrat war is good. Pass the Kool-aid!
Will the media also cover the Obama Death Count milestones? Don’t count on it. Read the entire post here: Obama Death Count.“
As we pointed out yesterday, the President has at least eight flip-flops and lies related to the war he originally promised to end, but now promises to leave a staggering 50,000 troops in Iraq. You can read the war-related scandals on the Official Obama Administration Scandals List starting with number 54.

Please get your facts straight about these soldier’s deaths, the 5 who were killed in the shooting incident at Camp VICTORY, Iraq on May 11 (according to the DOD releases) are:
Maj. Matthew P. Houseal, 54, of Amarillo, Texas.
Sgt. Christian E. Bueno-Galdos, 25, of Paterson, N.J.
Spc. Jacob D. Barton, 20, of Lenox, Mo.
Pfc. Michael E. Yates Jr., 19, of Federalsburg, Md.
Navy Commander Charles Keith Springle, 52, of Wilmington, N.C.
and Spc. Lukasz D. Saczek, 23, of Lake in the Hills, Ill., died May 10 in Nangarhar Province, AFGHANISTAN, of injuries sustained from a non-combat related incident.
While I abhor either side of the political spectrum using soldiers’ deaths to make any sort of political point? If you’re going to do so, please have the courtesy and respect for these men who lost their lives, and their families, to post correctly the information About their deaths.

Kasee267,
Thank you for correcting our error about Mr. Saczek. We have corrected the original post and appreciate you stopping by and pointing this out.
Our story here made no attempt to list the names of the five who died in the shooting incident as you list in your comment.
Also, with all due respect, you are way off on your comment about “using soldiers’ deaths to make” a political point. Did you read our post? Did you read the death count story? We abhor that too. THAT IS OUR ENTIRE POINT! We freely admit in this story (both of them) that we are using the absurd to demonstrate the absurd. You have to actually read the post.
Please stop by any time and add your comments, pro or con, they are always welcome and we do sincerely appreciate the correction regarding Mr. Saczek.
