6. It's as if he's saying:
"22 deaths in just 3 days! My work here is done. Time for another vacation."

What a dispicable swine!

11. His name is Nathan Rock


George Bush will probably never know his name. He's a part-time policeman in my city, and his parents have little information on what happened to him and the others.

With a break in his voice, (Police Chief)Carpenter said, "I really liked him a lot and I know people say that all the time when they talk about someone who has died but I am just physically sick to my stomach to think that he's gone."

"I really liked the kid a lot," Carpenter said. "I talked to him in Iraq a few times. He would call me and say 'Hey chief do I still have my job?' and I would tell him yes of course.

13. If I lived in Ohio ... I'd be pissed
that there are so many idiots in the southern part of the state. They had a chance to elect a representative who knew war. Six (at last check) Ohio marines lost their lives, and these "patriots" voted for Jean Schmidt. I'd be sick.

15. STOP Bolton petition with info,and GREAT article-Destroying America
http://www.stopjohnbolton.com/ very good one with info on the case against Bolton, and you may add comments.

AWESOME article- Destroying America By DOUG THOMPSON
Capital Hill Blue; Destoying America re:Bolton appt.
I beleive having Bolton in the UN will bring US that much closer to bombing Iran.
I hope everyone who can will be in WDC on 9/24 or be doing something locally - I am trying ot help folks connect and share ideas and resources here- perhaps ideas for those who can't come as well- make state by state (or major metropolitan area)connections etc. also photochain... and whatever else might help...
