I love how Tim O'Brien writes about Vietnam, especially in "The Things They Carried". Are there any similar authors for any books about Desert Storm?

Otherwise, I'm not looking for a reference book on the Desert Storm, but more of a fictional/novel-like approach.

My grandfather served in WW2 with the Army air corps. He told my dad that he was going to share his stories about the war, but was unable to do so due to a stroke. I do know that he served in the South Pacific. Austrilla and somewhere eles. I want to find some of the people her served with and maybe get some records. Or even possibly chat with some men who served with the Army Air corps.

I have never been politically inclined, so I don't understand it. I don't watch commentary shows, only the news. From time to time, I hear people use those words: Conservative - Liberal. And apparently they both hate each other. What's the deal?

Is the war going to get harder before it gets easier? Goodness gracious yes!

Is it going to call for more sacrifices by kids whose parents I certainly do not know or associate or ever plan on crossing paths with? My heavens yes!

Am I a total moron and should I have been fired several hundred lies and evasions previously? Most assuredly.

Two guesses. Name this guy...

We just signed a one year lease on July 15 2006 for a single family home. With no mention from the landlord, 12 days after moving in, we found survey engineers on our front lawn. Six days after this a story appeared in our local paper naming our landlord and how he had obtained zoning to turn our new home into offices for his business. This is a SICK and dirty game to play with a family who has, at least for 18 days, been very happy. There is no telling what this guy is going to do to us in the coming weeks. Does he have the ability to terminate our lease based soley on these selfish reasons?

He brutally murdered six innocent people, and seriously injured many more. How can anyone say that he doesn't deserve to be killed immediately?

1. Are you for or against the death penalty?
-And-
2. Am i crazy for thinking that people who are convicted and sentanced to death should be shot in the head in the next room over from the court room two minutes after their sentancing instead of them sitting on death row for 10 years, while taxpayers pay thousands of dollars each year to house them in our federal prisons?

You can't twist the truth when selling a product to the public without serious consequences. Why can't we demand the same from our politicians, so we can get the TRUE story, and not propaganda ?
