I am tired of our tired troops being sent over to do the dirty work for mob bosses who are going to squeeze the life out of Iraq and not leave until every asset and every natural resource has been raped from the country.

It is a rare mother who agrees that she lost him! she expects her child to stay with her; in her experience it is the child who has lost track of the mother, while in the child's experience it is the mother who has lost track of him. Each view is entirely correct from the perspective of the individual who holds it .” FeelsChildrenMotherIndividualLostViewsPerspectiveAgreeTrackWanderScreamAnnaAisleToddlerLost Me Author:Bruno Bettelheim
