The story of the mom who said her son died for absolutely nothing in Iraq

I, too, am very sorry their son had to die so they and the rest of Americans can live free and in safety from another 9-ll. How sad to see how selfish Americans have become since World War II, Korea and South Vietnam. You didn't hear the anti-American mothers, fathers and wives that you hear today. If you don't like America, go someplace else, maybe France. I'm sure your son would not be very proud of you to degrade what he was trying to do in Iraq. Shame on you. God Bless Seth and thank you. Since your parents won't, I wlll. Thank you again Seth for my freedom.

Republican compassion at work Ladies and Gentleman!

4. Sorry Mari

I didn't see your thread or I would have kicked that one...

I am simply amazed that a newspaper allows someone to post to this piece with the same old stupid ass lies... 9/11 and Saddam will always be one to ignorant Goose Stepping repukes....

3. I have two sons. One died when he was 17 of cancer. If my remaining son...

died even in a real, necessary war, I would be horribly upset. If he died in a war that GW Bush had fabricated is a nightmare come true.

I cannot even begin to feel the tragedy those parents must be feeling now. I know I would feel hatred toward a lot of "leaders".

I get too upset just posting this, so I'll stop.

6. Incredible

they will spin this atrocity,, this slaughter, this illegal and immoral invasion into something our young people NEED to die for and be PROUD of it. They will spin this war as a great deed done on a lie by a great AWOL commander in chief--that "actually saved lives" to quote another great spin. They will get away with it because the American people have been in the bread and circus for so long, have had their sense of humaness greatly diminished and gradually replaced by excessive consumerism and shallow ideals, many of which are conjoined with the "righteousness" of violence ,racism, murder and plunder

That any decent, honorable thinking person believes their young son or daughter should die for a slimey, lying scum like George Bush, and be proud to do so, is simply adolescent fawning, Hitleresque, behavior.

7. I just read the story

and comments a bit ago. Unfeeling, kool aid drinking jerks! :puke:
And, of course, there were NO, zero, zip, nada, posts in support of the Mom.

8. Thanks for dying?

You know what Marilyn Peterson, a person with an ounce of decency would keep her comments to herself. My guess is that on the day Seth's parents buried their son marilyn was watching the latest episode of Survivor or getting herself in a tizzy over Janet Jackson's boob. So your "thanks" fall on deaf ears. Most people would let the parents of a young soldier grieve his death in peace even if you don't agree with their political views. But of course marilyn being a typical GOP'er isn't content to let the people who have just had their lives destroyed vent a little. So much for compassion.

That sums up the depth of these people.

It is worse than Hell. Ms Peterson knows, she attends church three times per week.

10. brutal

all of those assclowns who wrote those hateful messages should pick up a rifle and take the next plane over there (or send their spouses, loved ones, parents, children, etc., if they're too old/young)
When said person comes back as a few random body limbs in a box, we'll see what kind of tune they sing next...
