First I cryed. Then I screamed....
Edited on Wed Feb-16-05 06:38 PM by leftchick
I was flipping through yahoo Iraq Gallery and came across Robert McNail who died on Feb. 11. This photo just brought me to tears...



This is a photo of Mississippi National Guard Spc. Robert Allen McNail was provided by the McNail family. McNail, 30, shown in Jan. 2005 photo, at Camp Shelby in Hattiesburg, Miss., was killed Friday, Feb. 11, 2005, in a vehicle accident in Iraq (news - web sites), Guard officials said. (AP Photo/The Meridian Star via the McNail family)

Then I continue my paging through yahoo and come across this piece of smarmy-ass shit that should have been fired and put in Jail years ago...

2. If you really want to cry, I recommend the PBS NewsHour's Honor Roll
at the end of the program. Usually half a dozen photos like that one night after night. What a waste of human life. And that's only on our side of things.

When someone dies, something dies in all the people whom that person touched, so each death needs to be multiplied by many times.

6. They lied to me! When I was growing up, they said the devil
had horns and hooves, not grey hair and spectacles.

Burn Rummy Burn.

8. Seems like Mis'sippi has more than its share of dead
You can put us down for being a "red" state. But a lot of Mississippi blood has been spilled. Mississippi tears are falling right now. Including mine.

9. Blood is the same color,
no matter where you live and the tears are just as real.

And sadness know no bounds.

God Bless
