If you want to know what our troops are faced with turn it on NOW! 9:50 p.m.

Lovely articulate mother is talking about 5 troops in a 12x14 foot room. 2 liters of water in over 100 degree heat......terrible conditions.....and wonderful parents trashing Mr. "towel in the flight suit Bush" and Rummy who have sent their kids into these horrible conditions.

Bush has betrayed our children.....a mother speaks...... Tune it in......you won't be sorry!

the faulty info this war was based on.......and about the illnesses of Gulf War I folks...and saying we shouldn't be there this long.......mentioned all the info we know about Bush and our Imperialists aspirations! These folks are angry and they know what we know.......

These are veterans........and they have children there!

How many more of our son's do you need, President Bush? How many more Hispanic or non-Hispanic people are crying for their children! Enough of this! he says!

My son will not return......but I want those other children to return. His son must have died.......

his son was one of the first killed.

This is heartbreaking to watch.

Those sad families.

He served in eight military theaters. His son Jesse just got deployed to Iraq.......

His son is in Baghdad......

Says rule of "Bombs and Bullets" Sending our children to kill other peoples children.......facing 120 degree heat, post traumatic stress disorder.....etc. ........not to protect the Constitution but to protect Halliburton and Bechtel.

He says "they" thought they were leading the allies into Paris in 1940's but this is a situation where bombs are exploding and danger is all around them. He says Rumsfeld and Bush don't care about this.....and he want's his son home to see his 8 month old son.

Says it's all based on lies.

this is one of the lead stories on yahoo.

:)

Site.....I can't get it for you....I'm watching and typing! ......deep breaths and fast fingers.

I think it might replay.....check the Google for C-Span......

Bring Them Home Now: http://www.bringthemhomenow.org

They know what we know.....but their kids are over there......and suffering.....

Robert Byrd and so many of us here tried to stop this....it's heartbreaking to watch......We knew...and know one would listen. And, I don't have kids who could be there and many of the others of us don't either......but we knew it was wrong.......and if my daughter was there or couldn't be there....it was still our duty to speak out even if we were trashed by the "tattered flag on the SUV" crowd, or the pundits on the Talk Shows."

we marched we KNEW it was a lie...why the hell did it take so long for anyone to wake up???????????????????????????? MY god how many more dead children will it take??????????????????

psst... pass the word :bounce:

peace

on the ground in Iraq! She says what he is telling her is very different. Another father says it's all being concealed what's going on.....casualties and he says this administration isn't talking about "how many have been wounded in this war!" Another says...as a parent he has to guess....because there isn't information that's being reported by this administration.

Stan Goff talking to press......says he's never seen an accurate reporting of any operation that the US has done in any intervention ......He was in El Salvador, Haiti,,,many places and that the reporting doesn't show what ever goes on what happens. He says we don't see pictures of wounded and dead bodies. He syas if we published pictures of what goes on we would be in war......it's sanitized. He says all we see is "entertainment."

The Hispanic Father is talking now.......says son was shot in back of his head.........but, in reality his son stepped on a US Cluster Bomb........so the report was wrong. He said his son didn't get medical attention for 2 hours. He says this is "unacceptable for the best Army in the World!"

Another Father is saying: "his son contacted him from Baghdad Airport and said Bush had said they were coming home, but he noticed a Burger King opened in the Baghdad airport. This father says that the Burger King opening to feed the troops sounds like their sons will will be coming home because (I guess enterprise is coming to Iraq) but the Burger King is to feed the troops.

Hispanic father.

I don't think that I could keep that kind of composure if I was up there talking about my kid being killed and the * admin and the POS press were lying about it.

Hey freeps! Has President Shithead huged the mothers and families of ANY of the dead servicemen and women yet? NO? Why not?

God I hate this monster in the White House!

"I understand the terrible price of war. I understand what it means to put somebody into combat. I know what it means to hug mothers and wives."

I wish I was a Christian, it would be very comforting right now to know that someday these devils will burn in Hell

:grr:

He said embedded journalists were the greatest propaganda tool the army has every used.

The families laid out the truth...Bush and his crew lied to go into Iraq...there was no connection to Al Qaeda...

Father calls it "the folly of this war."

Notes support for these families across the political spectrum.

Throughout this war we've seen orchestrated media events to create support for this war...media being used...Bush's tailhook bullshit (my words, not his)...Bring 'em home...

and all of it. My 47 year old dentist has been called twice this Summer (he's in the Reserves) to train troops here because all the other officers are overseas. He worries he will be called and have to give up his dental practice.

47 Years Old!!! What the Hell is this??

BBC Link is a good read for more detail than I could type....if anyone is interested who couldn't watch the C-Span replay and missed it this a.m.

against commanders and says that CentCom is angry if soldiers speak out .......for someone who is career military who is speaking out and getting trashed means that there is bad stuff going on in Iraq for CentCom to crack down on soldiers. He says thaey had to Replace the "3rd Infantry Division" because they were Mentally Exhausted!!! (OMG...that's big news)

followed now by a b.s. pentagon briefing.

He says that he stood on corner......with his sign but when Bush declared "War Over" then the honks were few and far between. He says he's still standing but recently the "Honks for Peace" are picking up as people begin to realize that the War is NOT OVER!

:hi: if he's reading!

Parent says honks in support of protests increasing in VA.

Bring Them Home Now is the name of a campaign.

Military Families Speak Out is their group.

Also Veterans Against the War.

They will be in Crawford TX and invite others to join them...the 23rd...aug or sept?

signs "Bring the Troops Home." Good News!

(Geeze, they won't get near Bush's Pig Farm but maybe the Press will cover it since this even was given at the National Press Club)

that is a protest I wish I could attend. Everyone who can, please support the troops and their families via emails, too.

it would be hard for the media to hide this one :evilgrin:
