Never Too Late to Save Some Lives

Hard to watch the casualties day after day in Iraq, the new memos from the UK, and wonder how we set some clear goals NOW to internationalize the rebuilding and bring the troops home. I heard a "Gold Star" mom (a mother who lost her son) in Chicago Sunday, and it breaks my heart. You imagine how many Iraqi moms and American families are grieving for a war that seems to have been more about revenge than reason. Today ain the House called for a withdrawal of troops. Although long overdue, it's never too late to save some lives.

Today a bipartisan group in the House called for a withdrawal of troops. Although long overdue, it's never too late to save some lives.
