HELENA, Mont. - A nephew of Sen. Max Baucus serving in the Marines was killed in Iraq during the weekend, the senator's office said Tuesday.

Cpl. Phillip E. Baucus, 28, died Saturday during combat operations in Anbar province, the Department of Defense said. It did not immediately release further information.

In a statement, Baucus, D-Mont., said the family was "devastated by the loss."

"Phillip was an incredible person, a dedicated Marine, a loving son and husband, and a proud Montanan and American," the senator said. "He heroically served the country he loved and he gave it his all."

:cry:

Perhaps now the Senators will wake up. I'm sure many knew this young man.

My condolences to Senator Baucus. No parent or uncle should have to live through this.

Sending strength to her, and her great aunt.

isn't a war. I'll bet his relatives don't.

Go easy, please.

He was responsible.

edited to get rid of the truth

I'm just so sick of the war and the deaths and the hate and the hopelessness.

I didn't realize that Max became an insurgent and drove a fuel truck

At all.

sorry to burst your bubble, but just about everybody on the Hill had a part in that vote. And they did it after being lied to by the executive branch. It wasn't Max who the invented war.

You aren't the only one tired of the war. Max has backed DEM efforts to get bushco to bring the troops home.

:patriot:
I'm sorry I didn't do more

no matter who they are.....I have to say this
As enraged as I am by his needless death, I am even more deeply enraged that his uncle was one of those who voted to allow the Idiot to put him in harms way.

BRING THEM HOME!!!!!!!! :mad:
