1. I wish I could take a moment every day... |

And think of the poor families of those who don't come back- both ours and theirs. But we just don't hear about them anymore... I guess I'm becoming inured to the horror we've created. At what point do we stop being human- for isn't that one of the qualities that identifies us?

Oh, but we still need to be in Iraq because Saddam might come back into power.

death resulting from the lies of our criminally insane mal-administration is creating losses that will never be healed.
I am so sorry for all those that have died and for their families - whose lives will never be whole again.

We must do everything in our power on a daily basis to get rid of this evil administration who cares nothing for human life - only their own wealth and status. Fighting to defend our country is one thing; fighting to defend their rich corporate buddies is evil.

By the end of the month, there will be 35-40 (and maybe more) American soldiers - young men and women in their prime of life, healthy, with families, friends and colleagues, full of love and laughter - who will be dead. Dead. Because of this war. Almost a guarantee at this point. These will be the February dead - the first February dead, and one can only hope the only February dead.
Think of them now, nervously fingering a trigger, or relaxing on a berm, or playing soccer with some kids, or reading a magazine. See them sitting in their cots, or scanning the deadly horizon, or writing a letter. They will be dead before the end of the month. LOOK INTO THEIR FACES. Sad vision.
The motherfucker hasn't scarfed them up yet, so their eyes still light up the desert, their boots still mark the city streets with a history of movement. But the motherfucker has its days and nights, its hours and its averages. The motherfucker says one thing:
TIME IS ON MY SIDE.
