So senseless that some of the brightest and most promising members of the next generation -- like this young fellow -- are dying in vain halfway around the world for nothing. Mankind continues to stumble through the cosmos and repeat the same mistakes, century after century.

I believe George Nethercutt thinks that this loss isn't as important as the "good news" out of Iraq. Perhaps Rep. Nethercutt would like to speak at this funeral, to tell us all that good news.

I would have fought you to the death if you had made this comment about my Dad who served in Vietnam and I find your comment highly offensive on a memorial posting. The worst thing you can say to someone who has lost a loved one is that the person's death served no purpose.

Please save your leftist rant for the DUh lounge.

Mankind continues to stumble through the cosmos and repeat the same mistakes, century after century.

Indeed. When will mankind realize that freedom works and is worth fighting and dying for?
