Why does this smack of, "I told him so!" Like, seriously, if she had died at the same time he did and they were in line to to Golden Gate, would her words to him be "I told you so, but you wouldn't listen!"
If she was so opposed to him joining, even thoug he chose to join, how the hell can she blame Bush for what happened? If she blames ANYONE but the jerks who actually did the killing, she sounds like she should be blaming her son. "Why'd he have to go and die like that? How selfish!" Seriously though, it was his choice, and she keeps acting like he was duped by a man she feels has almost no intelligence. Is she implying that her son is much less intelligent than GWB in her opinion, and unable to choose his own career because he just wasn't smart enough?
What does it say about this "mother and son" relationship that she claims that he joined without telling her and then re-upped after he had to know how she felt about the war?
