Unfortunately, I doubt that Harry Reid will care...

I don't know about that...did you offer him some land in Iraq for a casino?

Sad, though, that the mainstream media has pretty much defaulted out of coverage of families of the fallen.

I'm sure the MSM is sympathetic but after all, there are more interviews to line up with Cindy Sheehan, who has recieved 96% of the news coverage of Gold Star families and really, Cindy deserves more than that. The others lack sufficient BushHate, and they just aren't really news you know.

From this, you really get a sense of who in Congress is firmly behind our troups! Duncan Hunter tops them all it seems, or I should say tops all listed here. (Is he going to be begged into running in 08??) And what a thrill for them, and for Rush!!

Thanks Kristin!!

Great report. Perhaps over time more people who read about what they are doing shall appreciate the fact they are not bitter for their great loss. Their loved ones did not die in vain but for a very noble purpose. Like I shared two weeks back. We came, we saw, we conquered then gave hope to 24 million people for a brighter future.

I don't know if it's the beard, or what, but to me, kristinn has an uncanny resemblance to Wolf Blitzer. Is there any relation?

Great post about a fantastic event. Visiting Iraq, producing the report and getting it to news media and politicians shows that it's possible for mighty changes to occur with common sense, hard work and sacrifice. Thank you, Kristinn and Gold Star families.

Thank you for the pings!

Thank you to the Gold Star Families Iraq survey Group for traveling so far to learn the truth.

Please stay the course in the continuing propaganda war and force the media and congress to hear your message.

Just a personal note....I am a little disappointed that this thread only has 59 posts.

On this website...it should have been in the hundreds by now, IMHO>

... a briefing with Sen. Harry Reid's national security aide.

We then went to Rep. Duncan Hunter's office where he invited us to an early dinner at the Capitol Hill Club where we were joined by Rep. Billbray, also from California.

Rep. King spent a good hour listening to the families and asking them questions about the trip and their thoughts on Iraq.
He even put off a phone call from N.Y. Gov. Pataki to spend more time with us.

This certainly makes it clear who cares what these folks have to say.

BTW, Pataki could never have anything more important to say then these wonderful families.
