The Other Victims

While much attention (well, relatively speaking...not too much has been paid, really) is paid to those soldiers who die in this conflict, we shouldn't forget that many of the wounded - of which there are indeed many - are going to have life-altering wounds, including brain injuries, missing limbs, paralysis, etc.

I support these troops. I support restoring the cuts to their Veterans Benefits, which were requested by the anti-troop Bush administration. I support the humble resignation of Saxby Chambliss, anti-American bigot who questioned the patriotism of his single-limbed veteran opponent Max Cleland. I support the resignation of anti-troop Tom DeLay who supported these cuts and who proved himself a Chickenhawk and a bigot when he claimed that he didn't participate in the Vietnam war because all of them minorities had taken all the positions.
