You should withdraw from Iraq along will all occupation forces. The Americans have no reason to stay there, and the Italians even less,
One of the bogus reasons that George Bush gives for this invasion (and) occupation of Iraq is to make America safer -- and Katrina exposed that clearly he has made America more vulnerable through his policies in Iraq.
The deceptions and betrayals that led to the U.S. invasion and occupation of Iraq cost my family a price too dear to pay and almost too much to bear, the loss of my boy Casey.
I really believe Camp Casey will be given credit for ending the illegal occupation of Iraq.
We're not going to cure terrorism and spread peace and goodwill in the Middle East by killing innocent people, or I'm not even saying our bullets and bombs are killing them. The occupation that they don't have food. They don't have clean water. They don't have electricity. They don't have medicine. They don't have doctors.
I would love to support Hillary for president if she would come out against the travesty in Iraq. But I don't think she can speak out against the occupation because she supports it.
In a way, I wish he weren't the president, just so I could talk to him all the time.
In a way, I'm glad he did not come out to meet with me,
I know that they are in heaven, ... and I know that that's why this movement is growing because we have tens of thousands of angels behind us that are supporting us, that are saying, 'Well, you know we died and that was really crappy, but we hope that our deaths are going to make the world a better place,' and it's up to us to make sure that it does.
I know that Casey would be proud of me, ... I am always going to be a grieving mom. I will be a grieving mom until the day I die.
I knew George Bush would say things that would hurt me and anger me and I knew that I couldn't disrupt the address because Lynn had given me the ticket. I didn't want to be disruptive out of respect for her.
I kind of see their point that this was a grassroots thing that grew into a monster.
Everyone in America should be appalled that that many were killed. What's more obscene, me wearing the number, or that there is a number at all? My son is one of those numbers.
The biggest terrorist in the world is George W. Bush,
