War & Peace: November 2006 Archives

Thanks but no thanks

|

I woke up in a pretty good mood today, due to recent positive personal events (not to mention that awesome midterm election.) I'm also looking forward to Thanksgiving dinner tonight, since it's Mimi's first.

 A woman cradles the body of her 2-year-old grandson outside Baquba's hospital in late October, a month when Iraqi civilians died at the rate of 120 each day. Associated Press file photo by Mohammed Adnan Then I looked at the paper and saw this photo. The caption: " A woman cradles the body of her 2-year-old grandson outside Baquba's hospital in late October, a month when Iraqi civilians died at the rate of 120 each day."

And I find myself hoping that a certain president finds it difficult to choke down his meal... I really hope he sees this picture too. Somebody should INSIST. Show it to him at the dinner table.

Nobody should have to go through what that child suffered and what his family is still suffering. And hundreds suffer it every day in Iraq. All thanks to us.
