Mom asks that wrenching war story end

By John Carlson / Des Moines Register

Norwalk, Ia. - You'd have to be the mother of a Marine or soldier to have any real idea what's going through Kimberly Downing's head.

She's spent too many months dreading a knock on the door from a military officer bringing the worst possible news. Or a phone call from a sympathetic sergeant telling her of another explosion - and another injury - to another child.

"My family has given enough to this war," said the 44-year-old Norwalk woman. "No more. They can't ask any more of us. I'll do whatever it takes to make sure my son isn't sent back over there again."

You've heard and read the stories of soldiers and Marines. This is a mom's war story.

1. Imagine a mother

loving her children so much she does not want them to die for a lie or a liar. Obviously she is a liberal who hates her country. Any self respecting "conservative" mother would gladly sacrifice her children for our great leader.

2. ... our great leader, plus his corporate friends and the baron groups.
