The war touches Fairmont Drive

Nineteen American Soldiers won't return home after last week's events in Iraq. While Bush and Bush wanna-be John McCain talk about the success of the surge and staying the course in Iraq, nineteen soldiers were killed last week. That week now becomes the deadliest of 2008 for our soldiers. Our across the street neighbor stopped by this morning to tell us that her nephew was killed last week in Iraq. Like Seth, he married last year before heading overseas. Another life lost, another family devastated, a young bride left to wonder about a future that will never be fulfilled.
