I don't want him to justify my son's honorable sacrifice to continue his murderous killing policies, ... Late Edition.
I don't want George W. Bush to utilize my son's sacrifice to justify the killing,
I don't understand why, to rise to the level of being president of my country, one has to be a monster. I used to say that George Bush was defiling the Oval Office, but it's been held by a long line of monsters. We don't have to support our administrations to love our country.
