He was one of 22 from two National Guard units chosen to go. Needless to say we're all worried and scared for him....just the other day he was doign funeral detail for a kid a couple of months younger than him...and the best part is he says the unit he'll be attached to is one of the hardest hit in the war....lovely. This is the first time one of us have gone to war since Vietnam....and one just as pointless and wasteful, if not more. Please do your part and get that SOB out of the white house! |

We "lost" 300 folks from around here when the local NG unit left on July 3. Yellow ribbons abound -- and so do Kerry stickers. I saw one that said "Defend America -- Defeat Bush" on a car sporting two yellow ribbon magnets. And Idaho is a traditionally Republican state. BTW, Kerry has a vacation home in Sun Valley. |
