If you know a soldier currently in Iraq, please read this and reply |

My final little act of guerilla politicking is underway.
So far this year I've
-put pre-typed notes in right-wing books at B&N pointing out their lies to potential buyers,
--made bumper stickers and t-shirts with *'s face with devil horns,
--attended rallies, engaged the stupid whenever possible,
--put stickers on Hummers that read "How many dead GI's do you get to the gallon?"
and now I'm looking over a batallion of plastic army men, just like the ones of your youth. Each will have a sliver of a note wrapped around it, tied with a tiny yellow ribbon, naming a soldier in Iraq, his/her station, and asking the person who discovers it to play with toy soldiers, not re-elect one. I plan to make a few hundred of these this weekend, and leave them in key places all over town (book store shelves, the parking lot of the local recruitment center, outside freeper hq, etc).
I need soldier's first names, and divisions or stations if you have them. Generic is fine, but I want each of these to represent a REAL soldier.

I love the Hummer sticker. I wanted to make ones that said "WMD" and stick them on the bumpers.

2. I know a guy who left for Iraq last Saturday |
|
He's the boyfriend of one of my employees. He's 28 and was supposed to get out of the Army last month. Now he'll be in Iraq a year.
His name is William, and he's based at Fort Lewis, Wash.

3. William is represented. Just made it. |
|
He is one of the stomach crawlers. Crawling towards civilian life, I guess.
