5. Pile 'em higher and give junior another shot of Iraqi cough syrup

Grass Bush

Pile the bodies high in Austerlitz and Waterloo Iraq
Shovel them under and let me work--
I am the grass; bush; I cover all.

And pile them high in Gettyburg Baghdad
And pile them high in Ypres and Vedum Mossoul and Al Fallaujah

Two years, ten years, and passengers ask the conductor:
What place is this?

I am the grass bush.
Let me work.

Carl Sandburg

God Bless America

8. God please bring our soldiers home NOW!
Hopefully Lamont's victory will add a sense of urgency in this matter.

Staying he course is no longer an option.

I can't imagine what those families are facing.

11. I'm afraid the MSM is not supporting our troops - These tragedies
were barely mentioned. May God bless these men and women, and may their families find peace. And the wounded, never any mention of the wounded. Lord help us.

Another recommendation would be nice, so they will at least be remembered in our fine DU community.

14. War, War, WAR is the CM. Loss is just the crumbles.

Oh, this hateful, grotesque elitists-in-charge are killing us all.

BUT, everything is temporary and this, too, shall pass.
