Mark Ballard of Windham (Dead G.I.'s Mom is a Bush Hater) seems to to subscribe to the notion that the deaths of soldiers in Iraq is what they deserve--they thought they could get a college education, instead they are given tour after tour in Iraq and possibly death. Serves them right for being so stupid, doesn't it Mark?

The fact is that there are plenty of reasons to detest George Bush. He lied about reasons for the Iraq invasion--the 9/11 plot, WMDs, mushroom clouds, terrorists, or democracy on the march. Many patriotic Americans were fooled by these fabrications. Is it not normal to hate the man who sent your son to die in the desert under false pretenses?
