8. i am shaking now
he is not ok..asked him what he needed, he said just to get the fuck out of there . gets fired at constantly, rarely sleeps, big bugs and scorpions and spiders big as his hands. he is sending me dvd of life there and wanted to warn me to not let the kids see it.
he did lots of stuttering. i am weeping as i type. fuck this - ive known him since he was 7. he served in haiti 10 years ago and got called up for this.
i asked him about body armor and stuff, he said it didn't matter.what can i do??i told him y'all said hi - he said he'd seen F911, and that he voted already. says this is not a war the us will win, that they are just going to STABILIZE it. im gonna vomit now bye

9. Oh God.
I am so, so, so sorry. I lost a friend from college over there - just 19 years old. He hated Bush and thought the war was a bunch of BS. We're all going through this with you, so don't give up fighting to get this piece of human shit out of office. We've got an election to win here and we're going to do it so we can get your friend home safe.

We're all here for you if you need to talk! Try and stay strong, and KEEP FIGHTING. We're almost there, and in a few weeks it'll all be worth it.

7. Do they understand how we support them?
When we did not support this war? We want them home alive.
