700 more days of the Bush nightmare presidency will likely lead to:

1) Approximately 1,630 more U.S. military fatalities (probably a low estimate)
2) Approximately 200-250 more U.S. military amputees
3) Approximately 29,000 more Iraqi civilian casualties
4) Approximately $18,000,000,000 more spent on the war



(These estimates are based on numbers I got from the Wikipedia article on Iraq War casualties, Faces of the Fallen, and the National Priorities Project: Cost of War. They may not be completely accurate - after all, they are just estimates based on averages so far, and I'm not a math major...but I think these numbers at least give us some idea of the extent of the continuing nightmare.)
