How many AMERICANS did Bush kill?

Here are some rough estimates of how many AMERICANS have died associated with the policies of the Bush Administration. 
 
1. 4,094 US servicemen in killed Iraq, 517 killed in Afghanistan (29,978 and about 2,500 wounded, respectively; hundreds of thousands psychologically scarred)(see: US casualties in Iraq and US casualties in Afghanistan.) 
 
2. It has been estimated that 20,000 under-5 year old American infants die avoidably each year - disproportionately African-American and Hispanic one presumes - due to warped Bush priorities; that\'s 20,000 x 8 = 160,000 dead American infants under Bush (see: How Bush killed 100,000 American infants .) 
 
3. Tobacco use is the leading preventable cause of death in the United States. Cigarette smoking causes an estimated 438,000 deaths, or about 1 of every 5 deaths, each year. This estimate includes approximately 38,000 deaths from secondhand smoke exposure (see: CDC Fact Sheet 
Tobacco-Related Mortality .) 
 
4. Decent Governments legislate to minimize harm to citizens from \"life-style choices\" (e.g. obesity, alcohol, smoking, cars, drugs etc) or at the hands of others. The following data are from the Centre for Disease Control for 2004 - multiply by 8 to get the Bush-complicit Death Toll : total from disease and violence 2,397,615; \"life-style\": heart 652,496; cerebrovascular 150,074; nephrotic disease 42,480; chronic liver and cirrhosis 27,013; hypertension and renal hypertension 23,076; diabetes 73,138); accidents: 112,012; suicide: 32,439; assault, 17,357  
(see: CDC data on American avoidable deaths.) 
 
5. About 30,780 Americans die each year in gun-related deaths i.e. 30,780 x 8 = 246,240 deaths under gun-toting Bush Administration (see: US gun-related deaths, 2001.) 
 
6. About 15,000 Americans die each year from opiate drug-related causes i.e. 15,000 x 8 = 120,000 deaths under Bush, and substantially due to Bush restoration of the Taliban-destroyed Afghan opium industry from about 5% of world share in 2001 pre-invasion to a current 93% of world market share  
(see: UN Office on Drugs & Crime, UNODC.) 
 
6. And you can add another 3,000 American deaths to Bush\'s \"body count\" if former president of Italy, law professor, senator-for-life and intelligence intimate Francesco Cossiga is correct and the US and Israel did 9/11 (see: former Italian president Cossiga: US & Israel did 9/11.) Even Al Gore believes that Bush was criminally negligent over 9/11 (see \"The Assault on Reason\"). 
 
That\'s a lot of AMERICAN deaths in which George W. Bush is complicit in addition to the estimated 5-9 million violent and non-violent post-invasion excess deaths in the Occupied Iraqi and Afghan Territories (see: Palestinian, Iraqi, Afghan, Biofuel and Climate Genocides – Silence Kills and Silence is Complicity). 
 
Dennis Kucinich\'s list of Bush\'s crimes is just the beginning.  
 
Tell everyone you can.
