Reply #29: The story about getting the Purple Heart for the kid with no hands

[Hubert Flottz]

floored me. Mr. Murtha has a heart of gold! It's too bad we don't have more people like this man in Washington.

Bush don't even want to talk about the broken people this man goes to see every week at those hospitals. The contrast between Congressman Murtha and guys like Cheney and Bush is stark. All Bushco ever does is play politics. This man cares about the soldiers he is helping to send to their deaths. To Bush/Cheney our soldiers are nothing more than pawns in their sick political chess game/power struggle. Our kids are dying every day, so that Bush/Rove can continue to project his image of the "War President." In Bush's game of "POLITICS" people DIE!

How can anyone but a soldier, EVER understand, what it REALLY MEANS, to be a soldier?
