Product Description:

From DemocracyWidgets.org, this widget shows the current number of US wounded in the Iraq war. It is the second in a planned series of widgets related to the war. Advances in body armor and army field hospitals have led to an increased survival rate among soldiers compared to previous wars. However, many more soldiers are returning home having lost limbs in injuries that would have killed them a generation ago. I hope that this widgets raises awareness of the support that these disabled veterans will need.

You people are sick! You have to have software to tell you how many of our brave men and women have died? How about some software for those that have been murdered, yes I said MURDERED by those terrorists we are fighting? I suppose that would not be PC, huh? It doesn't surprise this crap would come from those belonging to the New Left.

Good job. It obviously works well, since it has provoked the wrath of the freepers who can't face facts.

I think that your widgets are a great idea. All of are troops are heroes in my eyes, but the wounded suffer the most. It's too bad the "merely" psychologically wounded don't make the list.

I have Posttraumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) from being harassed at work to essentially rubber-stamp soldiers as ready to deploy, regardless of their actual condition. I have "second-hand" PTSD from helping the families of those wounded or killed, and from listening to the stories of wounded soldiers. The nature of my job gave me access to information not revealed to the public - some of which has only come out in the past year. I learned a lot about Iraq from the soldiers' point of view. I also learned a lot about my own government.

These veterans were good soldiers, but many were really angry. There were all kinds of things going on "over there" that they weren't allowed to talk about except to others in the military or people like me. After awhile, I heard that there was an "underground" website where soldiers were venting and using their real names and rank.

I had to medically retire because my job was literally killing me. (I started vomiting blood and lost about a quart altogether.) I live in Colorado Springs near Fort Carson, home of the 3rd Armored Cavalry Regiment (ACR). I become extremely emotional about each casualty, especially from our 3rd ACR. So I can't handle having your widget on my computer. I support our troops and their families - they are real heroes. But I am very upset at what I know about the government. I fear that our soldiers will not be given a fair shake when they come home. At least we, the people, have learned to support our troops no matter our political opinions.
