Stole this from another thread to make sure you all saw it:
http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=view_all&address=102x2328916 This insane war just underlies everything that is wrong with this country. Most people will read this story and just blow it off. This was someone's daughter, mother of a 9 year old girl, 29 years old and just beginning to know life.
I doubt W is mourning this loss. He killed Zarqawi this morning you know. They'll cloth her death in all the patriotic crapola they always do. I have 2 daughters near that age.
There have been 2489 American deaths in Iraq, each one leaving a huge hole in their loved one's lives.
Edit to add - in case you'd forgotten why we must work hard to elect Braley and Loebsack and Spencer and Boswell!
