2. Requiescat in pace, fallen soldiers and Marines

Fading light, dims the sight;
And a star, gems the sky, gleaming bright;
From afar, drawing nigh;
Falls the night...

Day is done, gone the sun;
From the lake, from the hills, from the sky;
All is well, safely rest;
God is nigh...

Then goodnight, peaceful night;
Till the light, of the dawn, shineth bright;
God is near, do not fear;
Friend, goodnight...

3. Mommy, why is there war - when peace looks so much better?

4. And the Iraqi Study Group sits and discusses 'options'

while the slaughter continues. Junior and his criminal cru plot their political revenge, and the slaughter continues. The black SUVs prowl the streets of Washington, transferring the powerful from one posh location to another, surrounded by their centurions protecting them from a nonexistent threat, and the slaughter continues.

We are criminals. We are a nation of war criminals. Our crimes continue as we sit here right now. The families of the dead on both continents do not need the criminals to find peace with honor, they need the criminals to stop committing the crime. They need the criminals to be brought to justice for what they have done and are doing.

It is time to end the war now.

17. Oh no. Cheney and his corporate pals want this to go on forever.

Republicans cry "support the troops."

Do they think it is supporting the troops to leave them in a hopeless, endless, bloody quagmire??

HOW could we have allowed this to happen again?

Just remember - it WILL happen again until we have representatives brave enough to vote "NO" on these bullshit wars like Iraq !

LET'S GET OUT OF IRAQ AND GET BIN LADEN.



RIP TROOPS.
