The memo talked about highjacking jets to get the release of prisoners, not to crash them in buildings, Party you are hate filled. Party no lib has answered this question, what if Bush shot down those jets on 9-11 killing 600 people then said they were gonna crash them into the WTCs. Would you libs have believed him??

Pvt. Michelle Witmer, age 20, one of 3 sisters from Wisconsin, Witmer died Friday when her Humvee was ambushed.

She has two surviving sisters, including a twin, who are accompanying her body to the US for funeral services.

The family asked Sunday that they not be required to return to Iraq.
"I can't live another year like I've lived this one," the women's father, John Witmer, said. "The sacrifice that this family's made can never be understood by someone who hasn't gone through it."

The family said state National Guard leaders agreed to take their appeal to the Pentagon on Monday, and relatives also were seeking help from U.S. Sen. Russ Feingold (D-Wis.), and U.S. Rep. F. James Sensenbrenner Jr. (R-Wis.)

The late Pvt. Witmer's unit was due to leave Iraq within a few days. Her 24 year old sister, Rachel is in the same unit. They've just been informed that the unit has been extended in Iraq another 120 days.
