About a year ago, I thought it was a conclusion -
We were going to Iran. My boy, was in Samara, supposed to go to "Bin Laden Land" -And detoured to Iraq. I did not even know what to say.

But many of us read Gen Clark's book - and we believed - BS is BS and it will be called - then the SOB Bush acutally won the damn election!@!! according to the poles - What does one even say at that point???

The truth is I never believed in politics before - I DO NOW.

I know Treason when I see it. And I have seen it.

4. I was ALWAYS a democrat - I always will be!!
Troy is in Ft Lewis awaiting redeployment.

He did his year in Iraq. My brothers did their time in Nam and my parents did their time in Europe. He was in Mosul.

He called me and my wife after an ambush in Samara. I heard the same tones in his voice that dad and mom had so many years after Europe. Same fear. But this time, I was the parent. I have this sick understanding my parents and grandparents had all those years ago.

I will never forgive Bush for this - not in a million years.

There is a RIGHT and there is WRONG in this life. And I have no doubt God deals with this bastard in the harshest terms.

In that way, I guess I am a christian voter.

3. Seems as though very few people even care about the war in Iraq
bush always uses people's ignorance to his advantage. The election was won because ignorance.
