1. It is so sad that families are torn apart ... |
|
"One weekend a month my @$$" was on one of the jeeps. Really surprised they are covering this. It is about time.
Our local news told of a mother of 7-month old twins being sent there for over a year.
Some family values. :cry:

3. I still don't understand why |
|
the National Guard is fighting on foreign soil. Shouldn't they be guarding our nation? Who do we turn to if there is some natural disaster? Who do we turn to if there is a major riot? Will Canada send some troups down south to help us?

4. As long as Bush's approval ratings keep going down |
|
they'll keep doing things like this. We need to keep the heat turned up on everything.
It's going to be a LOONNNNNNGGGG 9 months. Kind of like having a baby. LOL *sigh*

5. Not a moment too soon...they creep in the back door, to test the waters |
|
and then safely, they pretend as if they are blowing the lid off a story. Pitiful!!!

6. A heartfelt thanks to you mari for |
|
keeping this issue in the forefront. How quickly we forget as we go about stamping out so many "conservative fires".
Mari: is the ceremony at Dover done or still to come? I hope that pictures get taken on that event. I WANT TO SEE THEM
