  I stop every time I hear about solider being killed in iraq and pray for their family, yes it makes very sad, but I know there is no way I can fill the pain that the solider's family fills, until they(The Bush's) were to lose a child in this conflict its just words. They can "talk-the-talk", but they need to "walk-the-walk" Debby

     Ms. Speicher you have got to be kidding me w/ your statement of walk the walk. When is it a requirement to have a dead child in order to led a country? You are an awful person to wish a child dead. You should pray for your own soul. I'll pray for my brothers & sisters of war, not you.

        I believe that she simply meant, as I mean, that if this is such a just and noble cause, why aren't ANY of the Bush kids over there fighting along side our kids?  She has every right to feel that way and she is right, the only way to know the pain of losing a child is to lose one.  She is not an awful person.  I happen to agree with her as I said in my letter to the president.  I pray for all of our troops as I'm sure she does and I particularly pray for those who lose their children and spouses.

  Hi, Im having the same problem that you have the only thing that the date are different and he still hasnt gone to Iraq but we are doing what you are doing to see if there is any way that it can be stopped, they told us too that there is a law that if you have an only child it can be stopped if he has served already like my husband has, I dont know if he is your only child but Im trying to find and act that should help him and my mother in law is writting some senators as well including his family, he should be getting out by Aug. we just got married in Dec and we really want to settle out lives so that we can start a family soon, but if he goes it will be the mandatory trip in Iraq for 15 mths, he has served 8 years already, he had ETS'd and got back and now he never expected to have this problem if he had served already twice in Iraq and in Kuwait for almost all 12 mths of 2006 except for his leave that he had to take during each tour, he was so excited to get out and now we are having this situation. It is so not fair that they cant have normal lives again. They were against slavery for me this is being a slave of the goverment, they have thousands of soldiers inactive that havent even gone to Iraq I dont even know how...he even have friends that were with him in NY and Germany etc and that are in other Units and their ranks go up faster but yet even having rank or not they havent steped the danger of what other soldiers are suffering for the 2nd or 3rd time, they told him that he couldnt go back after a year of being in his base but yet again another lie now if he goes will be in Nov but yet he should ETS in Aug and they arent letting him go. I dont know what type of strategy they try to pull out but if it hasnt worked in almost 4 years it will never work...and you are totally right they are even are in battle with the wrong people...this war doesnt even make sense no more, the only sense it is making is that the US Goverment wants to protect americans but yet wants to kill the same americans he wants to protect in a foreign country...thank God they are called heroes at least one day they would be remembered but why should it be on a wall or in a grave if they can be remembered in person and recieving credit of what they have done already...my husband only recieved a medal and a certificate...what would that help him if he goes back and comes back dead? What would they say? Oh yeah... we are sorry and give me another medal, one with the US Flags? Why not giving me my husband when it is suppose to ALIVE instead of dead in a box...it would be a different situation if our president had a boy that would love to go to die in Iraq...if he dies there then would he think about ending the war or stop loss...I guess we will never know...I dont know who is he trying to impress cause all he is doing is the worse choices for all americans...he can save his country in many different ways but yet he just smiles on TV. USA is not safe cause we still have him
