OK I'm so sick and tired of seeing these bullshit bumper stickers, magnet ribbons,  myspace bulletins, and anything else that has the words "Support our Troops" on it.   I have been a member of the U.S. Military for 14 years now, and believe me; I feel no support from these lame-ass items that are in some way meant to make people feel good about themselves for being "good" Americans.

If any of you out there really want to support our troops listen to this:  The best way to show us your support is to write your congress person, and your senators as often as possible and ask them to bring our troops home from this war that we should have never been a part of.

Once you've done that and if your at least 18, get out there and VOTE in2008.  Encourage your friends to vote, and lets get someone in office that will do their best to get us out of Iraq, work on foreign policy, try to balance the budget, and get this country of ours back in our hands!

Please I urge you all to write to your elected representatives as often as possible.  For those of you in the Albuquerque area that really want to support our troops contact Heather Wilson now  at:

3,611 Dead American troops due to "The Bush War For More Oil"
26,695 Wounded American Troops in this useless war.
412 Dead American Troops in Afganistan
30,710 Dead or wounded American Troops in all!

Who will be the voice for these fallen men and women?  Who will tell their mothers, fathers, brothers, and sisters why they died?  Who will tell their stories to the American children that now have only one parent? 

I have posted the names of the American Troops that have lost their lives in this criminal war.  Please read them, and ask yourself:  What would you do if just ones of those names up there belonged to your child, your sister, your brother, your father, your mother, your friend? 

Support our Troops!  IMPEACH BUSH  

VOTE IN 2008, AND PUT AMERICA  BACK INTO THE HANDS OF AMERICANS!

Life takes turns dealing us cards that we will sometimes never see fit to play, yet there is always a reason behind them.  (At least I should hope)

Last night as I looked up at the sky I noticed the day was a little darker than usual.  One of our stars had fallen, and the world would be less joyful, one less laugh, one less smile.  I tried to put this all out of my mind, but the world just kept spinning me back to the same spot that I had just come from. 

Fallen angels crept into my bed and brushed my hair with a comforting gesture to ensure me that life will go on with and without our eternally sleeping sister.
