Reply #19: So sad....

[Les Ismore]

I lost a loving nephew in Iraq in 2005. He was a fine young man, a proud Democrat who volunteered when he finished college. I understand that this young man lived down the street from you and although he may not have been particularly close to you, losing someone you know under these circumstances drives home the seriousness of this conflict and sadly, the incopetence in which it was executed.
May your friend rest in peace.
