I'm fairly alarmed here...

Has anyone else noticed that American casualties in Iraq experienced a significant upswing in the month of February?

The overall number of deaths is the same, but the number of soldiers killed by hostile fire almost doubled. Obviously we need a larger sample to arrive at any serious conclusions, but I'm really nervous about the possibillity that the insurgents spent the last few months lying in wait hoping for an Obama Presidency whose relative pacifism they could challenge.

Man I really hope I'm wrong. I have a lot of friends in harm's way.
