Online Iraq Veterans Memorial Coming Soon

[Iraq]

The weekend of March 17th will be the 4th Anniversary of the War In Occupation Of Iraq. As part of that observance, videos of the fallen -- As told through the voices of their friends and families -- will be put on YouTube by Brave New Films as part of a living Memorial to those soldiers. I have volunteered to provide a link to one of the videos on that day as a way to help remember just one of the many faces that this country and this Administration has so easily forgotten.

For a preview of the videos click this link (goes to YouTube) or to contribute your own video, go to iraqmemorial.org.

You Go To War With The President You Have.

[political]

Early this morning, on the Floor in the House of Representatives, Congressman Tim Ryan was speaking out against sending the additional 21,000 troops to Iraq without the proper equipment and had this jewel to share with his colleagues:

YOU GO TO WAR WITH THE PRESIDENT YOU HAVE. Not the one you wish you had.

Of course, I had to put it on a sticker...
