Memo to Drudge, et al: It's Not About Me, It's About the War (134 comments )

Even after my repeated attempts to keep the focus of my protest on the war, the Drudge Report and others continue to try to make the issue about me. But I am not the issue. The issue is a disastrous war that's killing our sons and daughters and making our country less secure. They attack me because they can no longer defend this war.
I've come to Crawford to bring to the president's doorstep the harsh realities of a war he's been trying so hard to avoid. But no matter what they say or how many shotguns they fire or how many crosses they destroy, they're not going to stop me from speaking out about a war that needlessly killed my son.

1. A powerful statement
If Drudge had any shame, he'd slink away. Of course, he doesn't, but hopefully some of his readers will see the light.

2. The comment posts have been "interesting"
I believe HuffingtonPost.com reviews them before they are allowed to be seen so they've unfrotunatley "gone static" int he past hour or so.
