Election Reform and Related News: Saturday, May 5, 2007: In Memory of Andrew Weiss

[livvy]

I was going to post my usual cartoon, but after learning about the loss of maggiegault's brother, I felt that something else would be more appropriate. For it's all interconnected, isn't it? Illegitimate election practices led to an illegitimate administration which led to an illegitimate war that we can't seem to get ourselves out of. The results have been devastating on a national and global level.

Today it's personal.

Today this thread is for maggiegault, and the family and friends of Spc. Andrew R. Weiss. They have joined the 3,362 other families who have suffered the loss of a beloved family member in Iraq. Peace.

                

Army Spc. Andrew Robert Weiss, 28, was killed Thursday afternoon in Baghdad when an improvised explosive device exploded near the vehicle he was in, according to the U.S. Department of Defense.
