Highway Deaths Hit 13-Year High in 2003
By John Crawley
WASHINGTON (Reuters) - The number of U.S. traffic deaths rose nearly 1 percent in 2003 and reached a 13-year high at 43,220, the government reported on Wednesday.

My point is, 43 THOUSAND people died in traffic accidents last year and thier deaths accomplished NOTHING! The US is now engaged in an effort to provide hope to the people of Iraq and bring the entire Islamic world into the 22nd century.
Asking our young men and women to put thier lives at risk is much different thant asking people to drive to work in the morning. Or is it?
