Breaking on MSNBC - Four more military

[malaise]

killed in Iraq today -one marine and three soldiers. Wow - must be Memorial weekend for this to be breaking on MSNBC. This must bring the number of slaughtered young men and women very close to 100 for May.

Thanks George Bush. :puke:

1. The whole point of Memorial Day is lost on most people anyway

Now it's just a reason to eat steak, drink beer, and get sunburned.

4. Damn

and I haven't even mentioned dead Iraqis.

Anyone who can rationalize invading and occupying a country and slaughtering or facilitating the slaughter of hundreds of thousands of its citizens is crazy and has frightening imperial ambitions.

Anyone who can convince others that unless you slaughter people thousands of miles away who never attacked you, they will come and kill you, should be locked up in a mental facility.

Anyone who believes George Bush should be locked up with him.

3. Send your reps these figures by snail mail.

Thank them for their recent enabling of the Bush administration so that more of our American young people can be killed over there.
