1. Is that at a homecoming or a funeral?

[Lars39]

4. Funeral.

I feel so sorry for that woman.

[rockymountaindem]

9. Oh God.

Whenever I see things like that, it makes me think about what my mom would do if I were killed.

18. Funeral

Man, that is powerful . . . It's so nice to hear that bush thinks everything is going along fine in Iraq. All the torture and 726 Soldiers dying. I guess the original estimate of 1 to 7 days for the Iraq war was a little off!

2. She's a widow or mother who lost a son

I presume.

3. Yup. Got me choked up. nt

5. Everyone is feeling the pain with the exception of the administration.

They are in joy mode at how well things are going in Iraq.

8. And the freepers. You forgot the freepers.

You think they give a crap about any grieving widows?

[Guaranteed]

6. Do you have a link to the page with this picture?

Other than what's in the properties, I mean.

I hate to even say "rate it'. It just seems too sad for that.

7. So sad... so needless...

This could be a mother saying goodbye as her son is shipped out. I know I would be scared enough it would be the last time I'd see them that I'd be that upset.

10. Yes, this picture is very moving and sad

:-(

Sadder because her husband or son died for no good reason except to enrich Imperial Pockets and Rob the American People AND the Iraqi People.
