Gold Star Families Seek Meeting with Rumsfeld
It appears that Secretary of Defense Donald Rumsfeld has been avoiding meeting with Gold Star Families, who have some tough questions for him. The families of our brave young men and women in the armed services deserve better than this…

Gold Star Families, who are members of Military Families Speak Out, have been writing to Rumsfeld since Jan. 5, 2005 requesting a meeting. To date, there has been no response from the Secretary or his office.

3. He c an't be bothered to sign a condolence note, or go to a funeral,
why should he meet the parents of kids who died?

5. This would be a good one for snopes.com since they have one about
Hillary not meeting with them which was false.
