He's lost his son to this unnecessary war. How many relatives do you have in Iraq right helping the war you support so fervently? Calling this grieving father a scumbag is low.
BS....he lost his son to the AL QAEDA. Typical leftist thinking. Mr. Berg was responsible for going to IRAQ, unless he was KIDNAPPED, he made a CHOICE to go to a war zone. Even if this WAR as YOU SAY is UNNECESSARY, it has NOTHING to do with HIS DEATH!! IT WAS HIS CHOICE and it was AL QAEDA'S ACTION that caused his death.
Well, I DID have a relative in Iraq fighting this war until 2 weeks ago when he was killed in a suicide boat attack... al-Zarqawi took credit for that, too.
While I don't agree that this father is responsible for Berg's death, I don't believe he deserves the sympathy or concern we owe Aunt Cathy and Uncle John. Michael was over there for no reason but his belief in standing up for America's security and freedoms and his parents are in agony because he paid the highest price for us all.

Unnecessary? Oh my. And how many of the people in Free Republic lost loved ones in the towers? We did not start this!
Yes, Neville Chamberlain said almost the same thing. You really should change your name...Churchill is probably up to about 150 rpm about now.
*UNNECESSARY*???
Maybe you've forgotten September 11, but I have *NOT*!
