It's
an event that is meant to honor and respect our troops by showing our
support for them. We plan to demand they get the benefits they deserve
and that they be brought home from this war we were lead into by liars.
Every day brave Americans are dying as a result of this
Administration's actions. It's up to us to demand the truth and
accountability. Join me on October 21, 2006 at the State Capitol Steps
in Montgomery, Alabama, and we'll show the Bush Administration what
real support for our troops looks like.
