what the heck is up with this Haditha thing? I could find it myself but I don't have a lot of time on the computer. My dad only allows a certain amount of time plus I haven't been watching TV because I've been under the weather due to the fact I've been off my meds.

2. imho... it's a result
of a military force spread too thin, asked to do too much with too little under horrid conditions for too long... critical mass reached and breaking point ensued...

5. They are all victims
And BushCo is absolutely and solely to blame.

This will surely make life much tougher for the rest of our soldiers over there.

And Bush wants to spread them all even thinner with a war on Iran... brilliant.

7. Can you get LINK TV or FreeSpeech in your area?
Watch DemocracyNow with Juan and Amy. It's on both channels starting at 7am CST and on through the day.

9. We used to have satellite TV where we had Link
I used to watch it all the time. There's some good stuff on here. DemocracyNow being one of the best.

8. Hi BlueStorm.
That's way too much info around some key buzzwords (Haditha, my dad, meds) in your original post. I am inclined to believe that you are not exactly who you say you are. Sorry.
