5. I'm so very sorry. It must feel so bad.
Having someone you love dearly be gone from you is so awful, and I wish it weren't so for you.

I'm sure that they are resting more peacefully, though - just knowing how hard a battle you've just come through with our cause.

9. The battle I've come through?
Edited on Thu Nov-04-04 11:29 PM by susanna
Good grief. I have done nothing like what he did.

He died in the sands of Iraq. I did what I could in my country to 1) protest the start of this deluded Iraq war, then 2) helped the movement to fire the people who took him there. I was not successful on either count. I don't feel all that great, and I don't feel that this country gives a shit anymore. It's just another soldier/marine/airman/sailor killed.

We have lost our moral compass in the world. We might have it here "at home," but in the world we have doomed ourselves.

I pray for everyone on this planet right now.

On edit: shochet, I don't mean this to sound harsh. You were kind and offered me comfort. I'm sorry, but what I wrote still stands; consider it pain needing a release valve. Please forgive.

50. What happened to your friend....
How old was he or she? How long were they there and what happened? How is their family feeling about the election?

I am so sorry for your loss of a friend....

I will say that I fortunately don't have a family member or friend there fighting in Iraq....I do however think everyday about these young men and women and feel for them and their families....

8. The pathetic thing is
How many of those 59 million even had the thought of Iraq cross their minds before they voted.

None. Except maybe the ladie who I saw voting with her husband looking over her shoulder as she voted. She'd probably be dead if she hadn't voted the right way, and I doubt it was Kerry.

7. We, the side that just got shouted down - send this to local churches?
Just to let them know we're fucking still here, we're not going away, and we're not going to let up, and aren't they fucking proud of what they've done in the name of God.


Sorry, just coming out of what just happened.

14. He just humbled me. So, when I begin to feel sorry for myself,
I will pull back and remember who I'm fighting for.
I'm fighting here so that no more sons and daughters will have to go there.

Let's turn * words around on him.
NOW!

peace.

16. The deadliest terrorist of all
After seeing Michael Moore's statement, I realized that Goat Boy and his henchmen currently squatting illegally in the White House are responsible for thousands and thousands more deaths than Al Qaeda and any other terrorist organization, including (but not limited to) Hamas and the PLO.

There are more than 100,000 dead Iraqis. Their blood is on his hands. On their hands. All of them.

Damn them to eternal hell.

let's roll...

how dare you try and hijack this thread from being about the soldiers that have died in Iraq. What an insult to them, their families, and their friends. People like you make me so angry, wrap yourself up in the flag and claim love for this country, then do nothing to support it. ENLIST. Go and fight and then come back and say this is a just war. You won't because you are a coward who hides behind multiple login's and trolls for kicks. You are the scourge and the downfall of MY country!

40. Learn to spell Boogereater....
its "too", not "to"....

Guess education was one of those things that didn't get included in the training of a freeper....explains a lot...

Sorry Boogereater, your lucky the mods are on a coffee break right now....you'll be back over at Free Republic soon enough...and don't worry, your precious emperor will be drafting your behind to Iraq soon enough where you can "prove" yourself for this war that has killed so many of our soldiers and the citizens of Iraq....

How dare you enter this thread, try to hijack it with insults and take away its intent to honor the dead soldiers....shame on you...

35. Well, they didn't wear burkas in Iraq
At least, they didn't use to. They were a very progressive country, with a secular government with free health care and education, which women took great advantage of. Last count over 1600 professors, scientists and teachers had left Iraq.

I thought you'd be gone by now, but see it coming shortly. Bye from all of us progressives at DU.

51. Amazing image of Bush with the faces of the dead....equally amazing is...
....how long it takes to scroll down the page through the names to get to the end....it puts it all into perspective....we all get so conditioned by the daily headlines of "4 marines died", that you don't realize just how many people it is....these people have children and loved ones whose hearts are aching...imagine how long that list is...and what about the list of names of the injured and maimed....

Remind me again of what trumped the Iraq War for Voters? Oh yeah, that's right, "Moral Values"....Fuck them and their brand of morality...this is the most immoral administration in the history of our country....I'll take a lie about a blowjob anyday....atleast that morality didn't kill people....
