The Mpls Star Tribune certainly prefers not to print anything on it. I can't recall Kerry or Edwards referring to it in any way.

Well FLAG FLAG FLAG FLAG FLAG." That's about the level of rhetoric at play here. Very sad. Great post, dear. I saw a bumper sticker in April that said, “Don’t agree with me?

It just plain makes you very sick--most folks exposed show up (but, years later) with various forms of tumors in their bodies. There is now evidence that it affects the future children of the soliders. The US Gov. response--gee whiz; we don't know what this is, but we are sure it is not our fault and we sure hope you can find health coverage somewhere. This was rampant after the Gulf War experience and shows up in the many suicides as well--now we just wait for your returning troops to get sick in a year or two and we will go through the same scenarios again--just like we did with Agent Orange in Vietnam.

Even more that they think that's all that's required. It amazes me how people think victory is assured if we just wave the flag hard enougn. Even more that they think that’s all that’s required.
