ProWar, ProWar, But Won't Send His Kids to Iraq -
actually called himself a hypocrite - but said he didn't care.

Who - person in the playground in a BLUE state talking to my friend while their kids were playing.

There are alot of people like that - I think you have to ask them why they won't send their own kids. My friend didn't, as it took alot just to get the guy to admit he is a hypocrite.

These are probably the same people who give you the finger when you honk at them for cutting you off in traffic.

1. Conservative Repugs are like that. It needs to be done .. they believe
in it ... their God wants it ... but someone else has to do it.

I know a woman who yelled and screamed as loud as anyone about going and killing Saddam and praised Bush for "having balls". She was proud of her two sons who signed up together. She told them it was their holy duty to go kill the evil in the world and they listened and they went.

The youngest died in May of 2003 and the oldest came home for the funeral on 3 month leave. His mother told him that he had to avenge his brother and bring freedom to those poor oppressed people.

One month after returning to Iraq her oldest son fell during a car bombing at a check post.

Several days ago I saw her at the mall. She said that invading another country for no reason was not worth what she had given. She has no pride, no glory, no victory and no sons.

As she drove away I saw a bumper sticker on her SUV ..."No My President"

It has to happen to them before they see!

3. 2 sons lost in Iraq?
I didn't know that happened to anybody. But it was common in some of our past wars. In the Civil War some families lost 4 sons.
