I just checked my email and found out my dad being redeployed for 2005.
How long do you think the occupation is going to last? Why are sharpton kucinich and braun (the longshot cannidates) the only ones willing to bring home the troops immeadiatly?

1. Not Braun, she wants to stay there
but Sharpton and Kucinich are the only ones.

How old is your father? I have read stories of people as old as 55 going to Iraq.

How long will the occupation be? Well, if the attacks continue, then we might not get the government in place.

I am not sure, but Bush seems like he wants to bring the troops home by November, just in time for the election.

signed up when he lost his job failed the physical but allowed to go any way. He really admired bush's cowboy shootem up mentality before now he is so different when he found out that bombs dont discriminate

2. BC We can;t
I will vote and be belligerant for the right way. IE puling our troops out. We are there for no reason, other than stealing thier oil, perhaps.

If I and many others have our way, you're brave Dad won't have to risk his life. Keep Working.

Kucinich 04'. Opposition Party? Hah!

5. sweetie, if we are still there in a big way in 2005, then the world will
be over. The late date is a good thing. Hang in there.
Things could change in a moment's notice. Better 2005
than 2003. Hugs to you and yours.
