Mother of dead soldier vilifies Bush over war

I can't help thinking Casey Sheehan would be embarrassed at his mother's efforts even as Pat Tillman would be at his parents' high dudgeon.

I really think once soldiers are committed to a war, particularly one as unjust as this one obviously is, they begin to lose their souls. So everything after that becomes an attempt to justify their sacrifices. It's also why 80 percent of them voted to reselect *. They have become one with their insane leader.

I watched this unfold year after year w/r to Vietnam. The following refrain was repeated several million times across this country: "We can't pull out or else the (fill in blank)thousand who have died to date will have died in vain." The number in the blank grew larger and larger with each passing year, of course, to where it eventually reached around 58,000.

So we've got a long way to go yet. The only thing I see shortening this is the lack of a draft. Those who haven't joined still have souls. But once you cross that line and subject yourself to the most effective mind control program the world has ever seen (not even the Nazis had it down like this administration), it is over for you.
