Hi Laz. I wanted to post this here for your opinion, not your other posters... comments from the Congressman Conyers Blog... conyersblog.us <<...#437: Kymberlyn Reed said on 6/12/05 @ 10:01pm ET... As of today, we have lost 1700 men and women in Iraq. That's 1700 of our best and brightest. That's 1700 young people who will never enjoy their young adult years with friends and family. 1700 young adults who will never experience the joys and pains of falling in love. 1700 mothers and fathers who will never see their children grow up, graduate from high school or marry. That's 1700 sons and daughters who will never marry or have children or grandchildren. That's 1700 beautiful lives wasted, cut tragically short, plus countless numbers of family and friends who mourn them. That's 1700 men and women who have given their lives for a lie. And how many other lives are shattered and torn apart from those who have returned from Iraq wounded either physically and emotionally? I sure hope all the right-wing Bush supporters can sleep easy at night knowing the blood of the innocents stains their hands. But hey, those of us who have never supported the war, well, we're the un-Americans here. Someone please explain to me just how Christian it is to support a lie while thousands die. Hmm...and we're still no safer now than we were before 9/11. Let's hope and pray that by next year we will see the end of the Bush/Cheney murderous regime...>>
