Adventures in Camp Casey


Well, it would seem that the "Freepers" from Texas left...a neighbor signaled his displeasure by shooting off his gun....and his mouth. The media pictures were priceless - a red pick up truck, a box of shells and a case of beer.

Cindy was pictured embracing a counter-protestor who also lost his son in Iraq. I guess that pretty much sums up what our President doesn't get: Grief trancends politics. Staying "on message" isn't going to cut it. As parents of soldiers we have questions. Often they are saved for those last moments before we sleep. They are very scary questions. Cindy is asking them. Bush, whether or not he knows it, is answering them. Too bad it is the wrong answer.
