Hello All,
Thanks for all the emails I have been receiving. Your feedback has been great. I heard from a Iraq Marine Veteran who had his 4 year term extended to almost 5 years. Had 2 deployments and one stint in Kuwait to help support new troops on there way to Iraq. He had a daughter who he only saw for a few months in her first 3 years on this earth. He was a gunner and said he just doesn't talk about the things that he did. It's better to not talk about it. He had great offers to sign for another 4 years but said he just can't because he doesn't know why we are there anymore. WOW! It was powerful.
I attached a letter from Rachel Shierling and thought you might like to read it. Seeing she is running for a national delegate also and if you have questions for her, please contact me and I will forward to her. Wanted to thank her for her support!
Hi Brad,
Thank you for writing- What an exciting year we're participating in! I too am a State Delegate also working to become a national delegate. Unfortunately I don't have a blog- what a great idea and wonderful way to get support. :) I've recently been elected to the Vice Chair of Events position with the Spokane County Democratic Party and I am the PCO for 3125. You certainly have my support for National and I have forwarded your information widely. I hope to be able to meet you on May 17th and will certainly see you at the State Convention.
Best regards,
Rachel M. Shierling
509-230-1168Vice Chair of Events/ SCDCCPCO 3125
Keep the contacts coming and lets make a difference!!

This is a story that resonates through every community. I personally have a close friend who finished his third tour in Iraq 4 months ago. During that tour two seperate humvee's he rode in were destroyed by IED's. He escaped relatively unharmed both times but emotionally the injuries he has suffered will never heal. One of my fiance's co-workers lost her husband just three months ago by another IED explosion. I believe what we need now is the proper judgement, that of which has been displayed by Senator Obama, so we can bring our troops home safely. If our current policy is not drastically changed we will be bringing u a generation that will only know war and turmoil, and not the posperity our nation is possible of. It is good to see people like you and so many others that have stood up with Barack Obama and exclaimed "it is time for CHANGE!" Yes we can!
