Joshua Sparling just got to Walter Reed last week and received ONE letter from someone writing in a child's printing. Among other things it told him to die. The soldier has the card on the wall of his room.

What the HECK??? There are some REAL sickos out there. LAdies and gents, can we PLEASE send this young hero some Get Well and Thank You Cards -- I'd love to hear that his wall is covered with them by the end of this week. Let's get off our butts and DO THIS!! Can I please get a shout out from the peeps who will participate?? Yes, it will cost you 37 cents to mail a letter. And another dollar or so for a card. And little gas money when you go to purchase your card. Don't you think it's worth it???

Actually, it's worth a 5 hr. round trip to deliver gratitude, gifts, and get-well wishes in person. Consider it done.

I would so love to know the full back story on this. Is it an adult pretending to be a child? Is it from some sort of class project like that elementary school "community involvement" deal last week? Was the child brainwashed by shameless lefty wingnut parents? Or did he just think this was funny?
