So now, I am VERY interested in reading Mrs. Clinton's triumphs, insights, and person story of how cancer has affected HER life.... and please note that she is under the title "health expert" lol .... so here it is...

We Cannot Afford Breast Cancer

posted by Senator Hillary Clinton Sun, Aug 14, 2005, 6:49 pm PDT Post a Comment

The recent declines in death rates from breast cancer show that with research, early detection, prevention, and quality care, we can make progress, and the sobering statistics show why we must. Nearly 1 in 8 women will develop breast cancer in her lifetime, and over 40,000 women will die this year from breast cancer alone. We cannot afford to continue losing our mothers, sisters, and loved ones to this disease. I support breast cancer research to help us find the causes and find the cure for breast cancer, because as Mary Lasker, one of the strongest research champions once said, "if you think research is expensive -- try disease."

An Open Letter to George W. Bush

Dear George,

You don’t mind if I call you George do you? When you sent me a letter offering your condolences on the death of my son, Spc. Casey Austin Sheehan, in the illegal and unjust war on Iraq, you called me Cindy, so I naturally assume we are on a first name basis.

George, it has been seven months today since your reckless and wanton foreign policies killed my son, my big boy, my hero, my best-friend: Casey. It has been seven months since your ignorant and arrogant lack of planning for the peace murdered my oldest child. It has been two days since your dishonest campaign stole another election…but you all were way more subtle this time than in 2000, weren’t you? You hardly had to get the Supreme Court of the United States involved at all this week.

You feel so proud of yourself for betraying the country again, don’t you? You think you are very clever because you pulled the wool over the eyes of some of the people again. You think that you have some mandate from God…that you can “spend your political capital” any way that you want. George you don’t care or even realize that 56,000,000 plus citizens of this country voted against you and your agenda. Still, you are going to continue your ruthless work of being a divider and not a uniter. George, in 2000 when you stole that election and the Democrats gave up, I gave up too. I had the most ironic thought of my life then: “Oh well, how much damage can he do in four years?” Well, now I know how much you have damaged my family, this country, and this world. If you think I am going to allow you another four years to do even more damage, then you truly are mistaken. I will fight for a true vote count and if that fails, your impeachment. Also, the impeachment of your Vice President. The only thing is, I’m not politically savvy, and I don’t have a Karl Rove to plan my strategy, but I do have a big mouth and a righteous cause, which still mean something in this country, I hope.

All of this lying, fooling, and betraying must be “hard work” George. You really think you know what hard work is?

George, let me tell you what “hard work” really is.

Hard work is seeing your oldest son, your brave and honorable man-child go off to a war that had, and still has, no basis in reality. Hard work is worrying yourself gray and not being able to sleep for 2 weeks because you don’t know if your child is safe.

Hard work is seeing your son’s murder on CNN one Sunday evening while you’re enjoying the last supper you’ll ever truly enjoy again.

Hard work is having three military officers come to your house a few hours later to confirm the aforementioned murder of your son…your first born…your kind and gentle sweet baby.

Hard work is burying your child 46 days before his 25th birthday. Hard work is holding your other three children as they lower the body of their big “baba” into the ground. Hard work is not jumping in the grave with him and having the earth cover you both.

But, Dear George, do you know what the hardest work of all is? Trying to digest the fact that the leader of the country that your family has fought for and died for, for generations, lied to you and betrayed your dear boy’s sense of honor and exploited his courage and exploited his loyalty to his buddies. Hard work is having your country abandon you after they killed your son. Hard work is coming to the realization that your son had his future robbed from him and that you have had your son’s future and future grand-children stolen from you. Hard work is knowing that there are so many people in this world that have prospered handsomely from your son’s death.

George, I must confess that I and my family worked very HARD to re-defeat you this time, but you refuse to stay defeated. Well, we are watching you very carefully. We are going to do everything in our power to have you impeached for misleading the American people into a disastrous war and for mis-using and abusing your power as Commander-in-Chief. We are going to scream until our last breath to bring the rest of our babies home from this quagmire of a war that you have gotten our country in to: before too many more families learn the true meaning of Hard Work. We know it is going to be an uphill battle, knowing how Republican Congress is, but thanks to you, we know the meaning of Hard Work and we’re not afraid of hard work at all.

The 56,000,000 plus citizens who voted against you and your agenda have given me a mandate to move forward with my agenda. Also, thanks to you and your careless domestic policies, I am unemployed, so this will be my full-time job. Being your political downfall will be the most noble accomplishment of my life and it will bring justice for my son and 1125 (so far) other brave Americans and tens of thousands of innocent Iraqis your lies have killed. By the way, George, how many more innocent Iraqis are your policies going to kill before you convince them that you are better than Saddam? How many more of their cities are you going to level before you consider that they are liberated? If you really had any moral values, or if you were an honorable man at all you would resign. My son was a man who had high moral values and true courage. Humanity lost a bright light on April 04, 2004. I will live the rest of my life missing Casey desperately. Thank you for that, George. Have a nice day.
God Bless America!! We surely need it!

Cindy Sheehan

Photos That Will Never Make It In The News

Pictures from Iraq that are too shocking & graphic for The Mainstream Media. I'm at a total loss for words as to why any segment or facet of mainstream media simply cannot, will not and totally refuse to give this side of the news. Can they not bring themselves to be an American for a few minutes to share with our countryman? Are they so obsessed with

"If It Bleeds, It Leads"

sound track, there is nothing else? The purpose of war is to bring peace! The Media cannot even give our Brave Americans in Uniform one little crumb of success. Pray for the media that they will become AMERICAN!

 

 

 

After Mexican police arrested Rodrigo Cervantes Zavala, 34, Monday afternoon near the resort town of Puerto Vallarta, in Jalisco, they soon made a discovery close to Acosta's heart: Bryan Cervantes, 18 months, and Jennifer Cervantes, 3, in a nearby house.

Acosta will travel to Mexico today by commercial jet to be reunited with her children, and the three will probably be flown home later today, Arpaio said.

Arpaio said warrants involving three murders and kidnapping had been issued for Cervantes Zavala, who was being held by police near the city. Extradition proceedings begin immediately to bring him back to the United States for trial. U.S. authorities would probably have to waive the possibility of a death sentence because Cervantes Zavala is a Mexican citizen and the country doesn't have capital punishment, Arpaio said.

An Amber Alert issued for two children kidnapped last week was canceled Sunday because authorities believe they are now in Mexico.

Maricopa County Sheriff Joe Arpaio said Sunday that Mexican authorities had stopped a car driven by the children's father less than an hour after the original alert was issued.

The sheriff says Rodrigo Cervantes Zavala is now a "serious suspect" in the case, as well as in the murder of the children's grandparents and uncle. He was previously only an "investigative lead."

The Amber Alert was issued at about 3:20 a.m. July 11. The 1993 Buick Regal was stopped at about 4 a.m.

But Mexican police let the driver and passengers go.

"We're almost positive that he was in the vehicle with those kids," Arpaio said.

He added that the Amber Alert is of no use if the children have been taken into Mexico because only American authorities use it.

"There is no Amber Alert (in Mexico), just information that they receive, and they have their own way of locating people in Mexico," he said.

 

And check out the conditions of the murderer and these poor children as reported by the East Valley Tribune:

...was drunk, not wearing a shirt, Ravas recalled.  He and his children, 3 year old Jennifer and 18-month old Bryan, weren't wearing shoes.  Bryan wasn't wearing any pants.

The Maricopa County Sheriff's Office has issued an Amber Alert for two children who are missing from the Queen Creek home where the bodies of their grandparents and uncle were found.

Investigators said they believe Bryan Cervantes, 18 months, and Jennifer Cervantes, 3 1/2, are with their father, Rodrigo Cervantes Zavala.

The sheriff's office is calling Cervantes Zavala, 34, an investigative lead in the killings. The victims are the parents of the children's mother and one of her brothers.

Sheriff's investigators said neighbors have told them that Cervantes Zavala has threatened the family in the past, but detectives have not determined the nature of those threats.

According to investigators, Cervantes Zavala might be a Mexican national......., here illegally.

WHOA!!!!! My mind at this point came to a racing halt -this is the exact way he was described on the live newscast I was watching --- Might be a "Mexican National"  -- SO HE WAS AN ILLEGAL ALIEN, come on people say it with me! 

He was here illegally, this should not have happened...... WHY... because he should not have even been here!!!!!

They believe he might be heading toward the Mexican border in one of two vehicles -- a 1998 white Ford F150 pickup truck or a 1993 green Buick Regal. Both vehicles have Arizona license plates. The truck's plate number is 866-NMZ; the Buick's plate number is 709-SDW.

Well, what this leaves out, that the newscast didn't was the fact that they knew all this info on his vehicles (I mean since he is not even supposed to be here, right?) That is because both are registered in ARIZONA to him, legally! -- How does that happen????

Also, they warned in the newscast -- that he also has been convicted of two felonies or that he has warrants on two felonies -- wasn't sure which -- so I checked it out.  So why was he not deported while he was in their custody or after he served time/whatever sentence -- or did he cross back over afterward.....

Basically what the F### is going on with the border and why have I slowly watched my surroundings turn into a state, that I have renamed "Mexizona".

So now that I have vented -- Please if you are in the Southern Counties of Arizona -- Please check out the mug and hopefully these babies will be safely returned to their mother -- Can't imagine, what these children are going through or the hell that in one day the mother has lost her parents, her brother, and possibly her two babies. 

A number of sources working various aspects of the case said more evidence was found in the Jeep. The items include a GPS unit that tied him to the remote camping spot, McKenzie's wallet and a camcorder used by Duncan to film himself abusing Dylan and Shasta Groene during their weeks of captivity in the Lolo National Forest.

 

Source say Duncan also used the camcorder to film what appear to be several attempts to kill the children. Each time, however, some gesture or action by the children would stop him. In one apparent attempt to slay Dylan, the boy — who was bound and gagged and unable to wiggle little more than his hands — flashed the "I love you" sign to his sister.

 

9-year-old Dylan Groene, was later killed with a shotgun (a fourth murder charge is likely to be filed in federal court) and his body burned in a remote part of a Montana forest late last month.
