My cousin's husband has PTSD as a result

of what he experienced as a soldier in Iraq. He tried (unsuccessively thank goodness) to commit suicide last year. He has been in intensive therapy.

I will not cast a vote for anyone who should have known better than to authorize that damned war. No one will ever convince me that any of our lawmakers at the time did not know that the Bush cabal was lying about WMD. Those who voted yes did so out of political expediency, and are responsible for untold suffering.

Another cousin lost his good paying job working for Tyco in NC, and now is finally working for about half of what he was making. The reason for the job loss? It was outsourced to China.

I will not cast a vote for any candidate who votes for policies that cost Americans their jobs.
