photos like that make my blood boil with Holy hatred for all the warmongers who cheered us into this bloodbath.
$#@! you Rush-Hannity-O'Reilly-Beck-McCain-Palin-AIPAC-GOP-neocons-Zionists etc.
That may be the saddest picture I have ever seen on RonPaulForums.
"Your mother's dead, before long I'll be dead, and you...and your brother and your sister and all of her children, all of us dead, all of us..rotting in the ground. It's the family name that lives on. It's all that lives on. Not your personal glory, not your honor, but family." - Tywin Lannister

this speaks volumes about Americans....the wife......the honor of marriage....the honor of the Marine standing....the Marine in the coffin.....and we are wasting/suffering our best (marines and their wonderful wifes and families) for what????...the borders of iraq?????
How about the borders of America????
God this foreign policy needs radical yet basic change!!
I had never seen this thread before...this is really heartbreaking.
I need an education in US history, from the ground up. Can you help point me to a comprehensive, unbiased, scholarly resource?
I've never seen this thread before either.
I can't remember the last time the media even mentioned the war, except to report some untypically high daily casualty count.
That speaks volumes for the 'progress' we're making. Bring 'em home to defend what's left of freedom here in the U.S.

Nor had I seen this thread.
It was like a major punch to the gut.
This woman lost the father of her child right before his birth.

// before heading out
people need a remembrance of why we were here in 2007.

This was the hardest pic to view, in my opinion, with her tummy.

I feel for this woman, I think that is one of the saddest pictures I've ever seen. It should never have happened

Back in 2007/8...I was hoping that the campaign would have run TV ads using these types of photos. Only powerful emotional images can shake the sheeple out of their slumber.

What an amazing picture.
You never see that on tv.
"Katherine Cathey was expecting a phone call from her husband, Marine 2nd. Lt. Jim Cathey, so she could tell him if their baby would be a boy or a girl. Instead, she got a knock at the door -- the knock every military family dreads. When his body finally arrived at the airport in the Marine's hometown of Reno, Katherine never wanted to leave his side. 'You take for granted the last night you spend with them,' she said. 'I think I took it for granted. This was the last night I'll have to sleep next to him.' She said about her all night vigil by Jim's casket the night before his burial. Major Steve Beck prepares for the final inspection of 2nd Lt. James J. Cathey's body, only days after notifying Cathey's wife of the Marine's death in Iraq. "
The night before the burial of her husband's body, Katherine Cathey refused to leave the casket, asking to sleep next to his body for the last time. The Marines made a bed for her, tucking in the sheets below the flag. Before she fell asleep, she opened her laptop computer and played songs that reminded her of 'Cat,' and one of the Marines asked if she wanted them to continue standing watch as she slept. "I think it would be kind of nice if you kept doing it," she said. "I think that's what he would have wanted."
All for CORPORATE GREED and "spreadin democracy!"
What a bunch of bull$#@!.

Very heartbreaking, my prayers to her and their soon to be son.
Reading further into the article I was disappointing by it giving the age old line of them protecting our freedoms. They should be protecting our freedoms, but sadly they are not in Afghanistan and Iraq, infact they are unknowingly endangering them.
Wow...how sad.
And it's not on the news, it's not in the papers. Obama sure as hell doesn't mention it in his state of the union. Nothing going on overseas people. As far as most American's seem concerned the war isn't real.
We know more on our evening news about how the Haitians are doing than our soldiers over seas.
Disgusting.

Why do we as americans give so much to this govt??
Its time to stop. I will die along side my sons for my state and our borders......the world can $#@! off and $#@! themselves.
The national guard should NEVER be allowed to step foot on foreign soil.
I will never allow my sons to be in the military with this empire of waste.
We deserve better than this. We are lied to daily reguardless of party by this govt.
We waste so much......for all the wrong reasons........after wwII no other country deserves the blood of american men. NONE.

This video, which was one of the first tubes of the 2007 campaign, made me shake with anger and literally weep with sadness.
It got banned off youtube, the soundtrack turned off, and reposted so many times I couldn't tell you who the original maker was. I don't think this person was the first, I could be wrong though.
D/L and save this so it never goes down the memory hole.
It should be required viewing...why we fight.

Holy $#@!! Thats was POWERFUL!
$#@! like this pisses me off to no end.
Took me two hours to read it. i could not go on through the tears throughout. Powerful story.
I showed that video, personally, to at least 50 people.
Not a single one was left unmoved, angry, openly crying, or, in the case of some neo-cons, their entire philosophical core shaken.
In a few cases, all of the above.

Words fail me.

meanwhile...the illustrious marketing geniuses in charge of the Ron Paul campaign were using our millions to run "He's catchin on. I'm tellin ya."
fools!
Ugh, really.

What really chokes me up are the pictures of killed and wounded innocent Iraqi children of which this guy in the casket was either a direct or indirect accomplice.
