Tomorrow is the FIFTH anniversary of the Iraq War! MoveOn.org is organizing vigils across the country. Here's ours...
We will be meeting on the fifth anniversary of our misguided invasion of Iraq to honor and mourn the great loss this senseless war has meant for the families of our service men and women and the loss of resource our government could have used for humanitarian or economic purposes.

(Ah, the days before I managed to discover the razor and its many uses.)
