there's got to be more to life than this...

This is just 1 out of thousands of veterans suffering. The denial of this nation when it comes to the painful reflection, guilt, and loss of innocence these men and women are suffering is immense.

They may believe in what they are fighting for when they leave this country but when they come back they find themselves fighting their own conscience.

This war is a massive loss on so many levels, when will the people of the U.S. realize this?

You've been all over it kaiser. ^

Another statistic I just calculated up is the Death count in Iraq since Nancy Pelosi became Speaker of the United States House of Representatives.

788 US soldiers dead in Iraq since the new "Democratic Majority" of January 2007. Since being elected Speaker, the approval rating of the divided Congress has dropped to a historic low of less than 20% (http://abcnews.go.com/Politics/story?id=3242551&page=1) due primarily to public frustration over Congress' inability to affect Bush's Iraq policy.

She also blocked impeachment proceedings against Bush.

We have a complete neglect of the will of the people (http://usliberals.about.com/od/homelandsecurit1/a/IraqNumbers.htm) on our hands.

Complete contempt of the Constitution and the Rights of ALL Americans....and Iraqis!

I suspect as should many that the numbers of dead and injured in Iraq (soldiers and civilians) are far beyond skewed

[drizl]

it really makes me wonder where we will be in five years. how many more dead, which other countries, how much more suffering.... we need jesus to be reincarnated and run for president. our political system is frozen.
