Poor, uneducated kids sacrificing their lives so that I can splurge on unnecessary luxuries is truly the American way! Without the loss of over 3,000 lives and 50,000 other casualties, I wouldn't be able to afford to go to the Kentucky Derby this year! Now that's outrageous!!!!
This is my very simplified way of mocking the decisions America's leaders have made, but isn't that kind of what this war comes down to? Protecting the investments of rich Americans with the sacrifice of the middle and lower classes?
Really f'n sad...
p.s. go with the short bobby socks, wearing knee highs with saddle shoes will only make you look like a slut!

DC,
Good luck at the K D. We're all looking forward to it.
Americans know how to sacrifice. It's the price we pay for living in the greatest country on the planet...nothing sad about it at all.
And thanks, I don't want to look like a slut. Enough of those around.
I shaved my legs last night. Feels pretty good as the pants hang nicer.
I did get a little carried away though, arm pits ya know. No matter, it will grow back.
Man alive! I'm so enjoying my new found sanity!
