1. Is that the one that the kid supposedly sent a mean xmas card to?
A little kid, supposedly, sent a card to a soldier who was injured, probably as part of a school writing project... he said something like I'm sorry you're hurt, I hope you die, or something like that. Probably, given the age they thought the kid was, a TOTAL mistake on the kid's part, and not some evil plot. My 14 year old daughter STILL gets things confused, like up or down, before and after, stop and start. Some kids just have that problem. I bet it's that guy. Most people would realize that a little kid sent it, and would just get over it.. but the right wingers made it such an issue, and without bothering to find out WHO sent the card (a little kid), they turned the soldier into a celebrity and poster child for the evil anti-war sentiments.
