Son's death leaves mom asking why

<snip>Maria Fisher is bitter that her son died in what she called “a useless war.”

She said she feels that President Bush lied to the country about the reasons for invading Iraq and that going to war was not necessary.

“Serving your country is good, but not for no reason,” she said. “I don't see the purpose for being there.”

As of yesterday, 3,701 troops had died in the Iraq war. Maria Fisher said she sees reports of the deaths almost every day, and now her son's body will be arriving home in a coffin Thursday.

“When is it going to stop?” she asked.
