Iraq War Hits Home
I wanted to relay this moment I had today just as a way of getting it off my chest. Shopping at Wal-mart today with my family I came upon a cashier who by chance mentioned that she had a son serving in Iraq. Her son is a hero, I think we can all agree, but what really got to me was her story of her friend. A close friend from what I know, whose son is also in Iraq, and has already served three tours in that god foresaken hell hole. And here's the kicker, he's only 21 years old.
That's insane.
How the hell can the NEOCON "horny for war" fruit loops in this country justify sending a 21 year old kid into a horrible screwed up beyond belief situation like that three times? A war planned by a complete failure as Defense Secretary, Donald Dumsfeld and lead by the Worst President to EVER serve. Not to mention these scumbag pundits who continue to prop up this mess like William "The Bloody"Kristol.
It makes me sick. I hope these kids make it home alright. Remember them in your prayers along with all of our brave troops.
