Why do we say SheAsa Nisim all 8 nights? Shouldn't we only say it one night, the first?

Why not say it all 8 nights? We say it by the night and day time megillah reading! – Double AA♦ Dec 20 '11 at 2:27
We'll that's the same reason we say birkot haTorah every day because it's a new day. However, here it was ONE miracle. – Hacham Gabriel Dec 20 '11 at 2:28

It's difficult to tell what is being asked here. This question is ambiguous, vague, incomplete, overly broad, or rhetorical and cannot be reasonably answered in its current form. For help clarifying this question so that it can be reopened, see the FAQ.

The Gemara gives an answer in Shabbat 23a

נס כל יומי איתיה.

which rashi there interprets to mean that the miracle continued happening the entire 8 days so we say the bracha over the course of the entire 8 days.
