Well, it is now over a year later. Our Nephew has gone to Iraq and come back. He came back early with a physical condition that they couldn't diagnose in Iraq....a digestive thing. Well, guess what!!??
It has now been labelled PTSD...Post Traumatic Stress Disorder. I guess our guts are connected to our brains! He is doing okay and we pray that he doesn't have to go back when his unit gets recycled! They all returned this last summer and no one was killed! What a relief!! I expect that since many of the guys come home with PTSD, it won't keep him from going back!
Today we listen to Representative Stark of California talking about Bush and his penchance for sending boys to Iraq where they may get their heads blown off. Sorry, Lou (Mr. Dobbs), but I can't get my 'back up' to criticize him for something I wish I could say and be heard saying! I'm angry and know many of you are too! When do we say, "Enough is enough! War crimes are war crimes! Bring them home!"
Having trouble posting. What gives? (I originally posted this as an addition to an old diary...maybe it has expired and that's why it wouldn't post?)
Oh! The fun of current events! Stark, Rush Limbaugh and his 'Phoney soldiers,' Pelosi and her inability to spend $$ on children's health (Thank YOU, Mr. Bush!); the FISA mess; a new attorney general (?); our Constitution down the flusher ("....only a God Damned piece of paper," says Bush?); war with Iran; Bhutto and Pakistan; $2,000,000.00 for a Harry Reid letter; (Oops! Now they say it brought $4,000,000.00 cause Limbaugh kicked in two himself.); Sarah's tears (little Miss Santorum gets a song); attack dogs everywhere! Wake me up when it's over! I'm tired!
