What's the payback for the continuing loss of these kids lives? Is it oil, is it an Iraqi democracy (how long will that last if we are gone?), is it phantom WMD's, is it Bush family revenge? These are real people with friends, parents, brothers and sisters, wives and kids of their own; each one leaves behind sorrow and wasted potential. To the politicians, they are expendable pawns that are weighed against some "greater good". The first "greater good" turned out to be based on a false premise; the new "greater good" is a crap shoot at best, assuming that what's being articulated is the true motivation.

It's keenly important not to become desensitized to this horror.
