Another grieving mother speaks
My son voted for Bush. If he were alive, would he be voting for him again? I am not sure. His wife and I avoided political discussions with him before and during his deployment. He would have never talked badly about the president, because you do not criticize your commander in chief.

But I sensed frustration in his letters. When he came home, I would have talked to him about it. I can't ask him now. Now I speak for him.

1. Another group under-represented in the polls
How many other Diane Davis Santoriello's and Lila Lipscombs are there out ther that have lost sons, daughters, wives, husbands, who will be flooding the polls to remove this president who are not accurately represented in pre-election polls? I bow my head in shame for being part of a country that sent their children and other loved ones to die, not for a mistake, but a lie. However, I feel pride in knowing I, and millions of others, will be doing everything possible to remove this administration, so that their deaths were not in vain, and so we the people can get our country back from the social elites.

2. That was really well stated. It makes a person with heart sick.

3. I'm so sorry about his son who died in
an avoidable situation.

His letter is a convincing testimont to his son and to having Kerry as our President!
