Subject: RE: Another Day, Another Dead Soldier
The fact that 500 Americans and several thousand Iraqis died so that George W. could prove that he had a bigger thingie than his father makes me want to scream!
Since that would scare my cats, I will settle for voting the son of a Bush out of office.
Every time I read about casualties in Iraq, ( They don't write about Afghanistan.) I think of the Civil War Song "All Quiet on the Potomac Tonight", which is about a sentry being shot on a night when the papers report that all is quiet along the Potomac.
Someone needs to write a similar song about the current situation. I don't think that someone is me. Anyone else care to try.
