And how are WE going to help them return to society?? These amazingly patriotic young babies (yes, that's what they are, including my 25 y/o cousin in Falluja) are pumped up by the devious defense dept., led by Romsferatu, with the righteousness of their mission, sent over the line to Iraq and blown to bits...This administration "loves" them as they send them off to defend GW Bush's ill fated folly, and do their best to forget them when they have no arms, legs or faces or lives (how many funerals has GWB attended???)...other than token and false sympathy.
There are many military family groups out there doing their darndest to fill the gap that our leaders have failed at, that is protecting their children by buying them body armour that our GOV"T should have provided but instead, paid our treasury to mysterious "contractors" and Halliburton in an almost obscene display of robbery. We MUST support the military family groups and me MUST remember our babies when they come back! Do we know of a group performing this service? It's not our Gov't as we know there are Iraq vet homeless now.
The "Yellow magnetic ribbon support our troops" set is all for political show. They won't be there for the armless and legless and those with shattered minds..."best put them in jail ya, when they relive their nightmares on main street"..No good. We, if we stand for our liberal principles, much reach out the hand of kindness and help these men and women reclaim their lives and recover from the lies of GWB. I suggest we establish a charity, symbol, a red and blue ribbon, red, for their blood, blue for those of us who did not vote for Bush but stand behind our troops who went when they were called. They truly are heroes in the most profound sense, not just for a mangled soundbite.
I am familiar with establishing PACS and charitable organizations and, after today, am seeking those who want to help establish a fund for Iraqi vets so they won't think they are forgotten.
