RAW STORY: military families to join crawford protest

More members of Gold Star Families for Peace (GSFP) and Military Families Speak Out (MFSO) are traveling to Texas to join the protest outside of President Bush's ranch in Crawford, Texas, where he is vacationing for the month of August, a release issued to RAW STORY revealed Tuesday morning. The release follows.

#
Starting today, Gold Star families from Pennsylvania, New Jersey, Arkansas and other states whose loved ones have died as a result of the war in Iraq will be joining one of their members, Cindy Sheehan, at the protest. Ms. Sheehan, whose son Army Specialist Casey Sheehan was killed in Sadr City, Iraq on April 4, 2004, has been in Crawford since August 5th, demanding a meeting with the President. These families will be joined by military families with loved ones currently serving in Iraq or about to deploy or redeploy to Iraq. All of these families are coming to Crawford, Texas to share their stories about the personal costs of the war in Iraq and add their voices to the call for a meeting with President Bush.

On August 3, 2005 President Bush, speaking about the dreadful loss of life in Iraq in early August, said "We have to honor the sacrifices of the fallen by completing the mission... The families of the fallen can be assured that they died for a noble cause." Gold Star and military families coming to Crawford know that the cause was not noble; that their loved ones died, or are currently in harm's way, serving in a war based on lies.

status to that of a DUFUS one...which would occur should he venture forth from the sty to answer questions while Ukamillion Cameras are ON..

"President Bush has consistently tried to hide, and to hide from, the cost of the war in Iraq. This August, these costs are being brought right to his doorstep." ----------- they are showing his cowardice!

Period.

you know, like "alices restaurant". same old protest songs, still relevent today.

but with only two portapotties, there could be a movement in the yard!

Greenday: "Holiday", "American Idiot"

Nine-Inch-Nails: "Bite the Hand that Feeds"

System of a Down: "B.Y.O.B."

There are others. Most if not all that I can think of have no peacefully protest edge...moreover an angry theme. Why not? The peaceful approach didn't keep them from making the same mistake again...maybe the angry one will.

In today's Seattle PI

i thought it was more.http://www.democrats.com/node/5595
