Franklin Graham's son hurt in Iraq
2007-03-15
The son of the Reverend Franklin Graham has been injured in combat in Iraq. Reverend Graham said his son was hospitalized after suffering shrapnel injuries in his arms, legs and back. Captain Edward Graham, 27, an Army Ranger, is the grandson of the Reverend Billy Graham. A spokesperson for the family said the injuries are not life-threatening.
Get well soon, Captain, and thank you.

#4  Well, NS, you're probably right, but it's still disgusting. No, I never served, but I came close a couple of times, and have always respeceted those who "provide for the common defense".

Like Frank Schaeffer suggested in his book Keeping Faith: a Father-Son Story About Love and the United States Marine Corps - nothing changes a liberal's perspective about the the military like having your son join the Marines!

#3  I believe the proportion of children in Iraq is the same for the Congress as for the general population.

#1  How many Senators and Representatives have family members in the Service? Senator Webb, the rude jerk, has a son in Iraq. Remember he told W to buzz off when he asked about Webb's son? Anybody else?
