DEAD GI's MOM - Collapses, Dies
http://www.cnn.com/2004/US/10/05/soldiers.mother.ap/index.html

This is the true cost of the Iraq war. Not only has a brave soldier died for a lie, but his mother - heartbroken - has collapsed and died in grief over her son.

I believe God will truly judge Bush harshly. We should all be praying for that family.

1. She was only 45 .......FUCK FUCK FUCK THIS SHIT
TUCSON, Arizona (AP) -- A 45-year-old woman collapsed and died days after learning her son had been killed in Iraq, and just hours after seeing his body.

Results of an autopsy were not immediately released, but friends of Karen Unruh-Wahrer said she couldn't stop crying over losing her 25-year-old son, Army Spc. Robert Oliver Unruh, who was killed by enemy fire near Baghdad on September 25.

"Her grief was so intense -- it seemed it could have harmed her, could have caused a heart attack. Her husband described it as a broken heart," said Cheryl Hamilton, manager of respiratory care services at University Medical Center, where Unruh-Wahrer worked as a respiratory therapist.

2. I will pray, there is nothing I can add to this. The shame we feel should
be owned by this administration.

5. Her husband said she had a broken heart.
:cry: May she and her son rest in peace and may George W. Bush BURN IN HELL for what he has done. None of these people needed to die.

12. No.
That would be seen as taking advantage of a family's grief, plus I think it would be unseemly.

God be with this family. This just makes me sick. So, so senseless, and a president who just does not care.

7. Just when I think I can't hate these liars anymore than I do, I learn...
there is no limit to how much I can hate them and how much they deserve it.

11. Hope not fear
It's a shame how many have to die for "Bush's War"

We should start referring to it as "Bush's war" by the way, b/c it shows who's responsible.
