50,000 PROTESTERS in LOS ANGELES yesterday...THOUSANDS in San Francisco today, over ONE THOUSAND IN SAN DIEGO...protests around the country ALL WEEKEND...are we seeing a THEME here?
DAMN STRAIGHT WE ARE...four long years later and not SOON enough, but at least we are taking to the streets now.
This is a SHORT diary...please follow me below
I would like to DEDICATE this diary to our TROOPS and our VETERANS.
Of ALL wars and conflicts.
To the troops who have been injured and are now facing a different life then what they probably ever imagined.
To the troops who suffer from PTSD...
I dedicate this to all of those who are caregivers or just flat care and keep us informed (Ilona comes to mind)...
The families, friends and loved ones who stand by them...
Please check this link...it will tear at your heart: http://iraqmemorial.org/
Then PLEASE do TWO THINGS...
Go to MOVEON.org and find a vigil to attend tomorrow night
Recommend this diary...
In Peace and dedicated also to my father, who served in WWII and fought at the Battle of the Bulge...he lived a tormented life but he was my Dad, may you be finally resting in peace.
Thank you..
Barbara, Tirawa and Winston
PS: I'm HOSTING the Oceanside, California vigil - VIGIL BY THE SEA III. Oceanside is home of Camp Pendleton where we have something like 25,000 troops deployed..
