I'm planning on going to Crawford on Saturday
I am handwriting index cards for each Texas soldier killed in Iraq (168 as of yesterday). I'm giving their name, age, date of death and how they died on each card. If the so-called president were to send some flak emmisary out, should I give the cards to that person telling him/her that I thought Bush would be interested to know how his people in Texas died?

I'm doing this for myself, but I would love it if they were useful.

1. That is some nice symbolism
Could provide some powerful imagery - depending on how Bush Flunkies handle it, of course.

2. especially considering the famous
deck of the most wanted with Saddam Hussein being the Ace of Spades. Give 3 guesses which card Bush should be.

5. Time permitting
I might make 2 copies. I bought a box of 240 index cards - I guess I should get a plastic box for them if it's raining. I hoped it would provide a visual symbol.
