Americans are almost powerless when it comes to their leaders. I blame Bush for this one.

11. Thank You Dudley_DUright
for your cart.

Could you put another blue circle on the red line that shows, "The New Image of Iraq," or in other words when Condoleezza Rice took charge of the Security Counsel. Along with major terrorist bombing's.

TIA

16. Not my chart
but you could send your suggestions to Ed Stephan, who you could probably contact through his website (see link below chart).

9. every morning I wake up and change the number on my sign
Edited on Sun Oct-19-03 08:23 AM by Mari333
in my yard...2 more..4 more...3 more...its the only way I can get the word out.
But I know somewhere every night, a mother, father, wife, family member, sees 2 uniformed men walk up to their door...and tell them "Your son/daughter has died". And then hell starts for these people.

14. Yes, all for nothing
This war is on king georgie's* head not the american people who screamed at the deaf idiot* not to start a war. To all of those idiots listening to toby keith destroying dixie chick cds and waving old glory I say look what your boy idiot has done now.

More American dead every day, an enormous bill that great grandkids will be paying off. Rabid neoconvicts ready to charge over the hill in a new quest for world domination. All so georgie jr.* could prove his was bigger than poppy. Well you've proved your point fucknutz go fulfill your incestous dreams and leave the rest of us alone.

15. I've heard a lot of people voice the same sentiment.
It's truly wearing on the nerves of just about everyone but must be unbearable for the families; much pain and devastation is felt from the loss of one life. I pray for them all.

17. Every member of Congress who voted for this travesty
and who voted for continued funding for this travesty should be forced to serve in Iraq alongside these troops who are being killed by the not-so-friendly locals. Their own adult sons and daughters should be forced to go to. As long as it's somebody else's kid being blown up they just don't give a shit.

18. I've spent the last hour watching cable news, saw nothing of it
guess it didn't happen.

Everything's just peachy over there. And here.

All I saw was Lipless Mitch McConnel trying to say something but I didn't want to puke, so I turned it off
