from mmflint's entry at YouTube:

Celeste Zappala's son, Sgt. Sherwood Baker, became the first Pennsylvania National Guardsman killed in combat since World War II. Gilda Carbanaro agrees. The Bethesda, Md., teacher watched life ebb from her son's body at a German hospital in May. Twenty-eight-year-old Alex Carbanaro was injured by a roadside bomb. It was his second time to Iraq, and the second time he'd been wounded.

4. Salute to the fallen: men and women 10 times better...

...than those who sent them there. I'd give up 10 Cheneys or Rumsfelds for any of the Lance Corporals my unit lost.

5. is there a greater tragedy -- or a greater outrage -- than the fact that ALL deaths in Iraq . . .

are meaningless? . . . that all fatalities, be they U.S. or Iraqi, occur because we illegally invaded and occupied this nation, and that the administration outright lied to cover their asses? . . . and that they're STILL getting away with it? . . .

impeach the bastards . . . NOW . . .
