Dear Rose, I will fight to Avenge Davids death, by Keeping McCain out of the White House.

You know we all know the numbers by heart of how many soldiers have dies because of this war that is based on a lie. But how many more have we lost because of stories like this. That's a number we will never know.

I know a lot of people like to base their vote on social issues, and I want to respect that, however, we have way to much at stake in this election to vote based on one polarizing view, over another. We would be wise to focus on what's at stake as a whole in this election. It's a fact a depressed economy drives up the number of abortions, think how many babies you can save if you vote for the candidate that wants to guarantee unborn babies will have health care, with out it being a financial stress strain of struggle.

Think of Rose she lost her son, a son she loved, because he couldn't afford to go to the hospital, a hospital that gets to make a profit on David whether he lives or dies. And now who pays that bill. Rose does she now have to assume the responsibility of that bill? Or do we pay it? Like it our not whether we have a health care system that is guaranteed or not.

We are already pay for health care. Only we pay for a system that only benefits health insurance Companies and doctors charging too much. Our tax paying money goes to cover unpaid medical bills everyday. When someone loses their home because of mounting medical bills, WE pay for that. The interest we pay on our homes goes to pay down Our national debt. We have over 1 million foreclosed homes this year alone.

Think about it like this, my husband and I pay about 20,000 thousand a year just in interest, and we have a small mortgage compared to the national AVG. Now image the 1 million homes now in foreclosure. That's 1 million loans no longer going toward the national debt. Multiply 1 million dollars by $20,000 , that now $20,000,000,000 that is no longer going towards paying off the national debt.

The Biggest mistake of the Republicans is that they don't realize we are all connected. We Raise and Fall by the strength of our Weakest link.

I didn't mean to turn this Post into an issue of money, it still about Death

How many more babies David was Rose's baby no matter his age, how many more of our babies have to die, because people insist on supporting the selfish "Me only" platform of the Republican Party?


Rose, I have not experienced the pain of losing a child, but I am a mother of two little boys, and I understand that is a loss that I would not be mentally able to handle ever, my heart, and prayers and love from one mother to another goes out to you and your family.

**********************************************************
If I am mistaken about what the interest on our Loans pays for please correct me
thanks. I do know it doesn't all go to the banks, which is why it's a tax deduction.
