2. I think even DU is overdosing on Schiavo and missing the real stuff
and then we have our own Senate Leader Harry Reid pumping the Iraq war and continued occupancy. We are getting hosed for not paying attention!!!

4. INCREDIBLE VIDEO
Thats so seriously wonderful.
Especially moving is the part in the video when the old anti-war Vet's voice wavers out "...am I wrong..?" and the marines chant in unison "YOU'RE RIGHT!"

and,
the mother (pictured) tells us about rationing of three Bullets a week - IN IRAQ - for some national guardsmen! CRAZZZZY.

I believe her.
because bud Katie from Woonsocket told me her friend's little brother had his body armor, bullets, and a better gun bought for him this past Christmas.Frikkin' Incredible.
Parents having to buy the armor bullets andc guns for their child to go to die for ...WHO? To die for who's interests?


You and I, We'll never see any of this famed Oil. I feel like the Oil will be stored for the ultra rich to keep their Hummers humming... =(
