Our answer to the moveon.org ad, "Mom speaks out to John McCain":
"Hi Barak Obama, this is Alex. So far his talents include trying any new food,
and chasing after the family dog. That, and making his mother's heart pound
every time she looks at him. So Barak Obama, when you said you would take our
troops out of Iraq, did you forget about Alex? John McCain doesn’t send babies
to fight wars Mr. Obama but our brave men and women do stand up to protect us
so babies like Alex will be safe at home. If you think we’ll stand by and let
Alex’s future be jeopardized by Islamic terrorists Barak Obama, you are wrong.
That is why America will be electing John McCain instead of you!”
