They're weepy and demanding. They whine and Kvetch and there's more of them every day: Terror moms. (Woman 1: Bush charmed me in one meeting, disgusted me in another and refused a third. I need that face time to break the tie!) (Man: That was one meeting.) (Woman 1: And...?) (Woman 2: I demand that Bush explain why my son got killed in Iraq.) (Woman 3: Because he was stupid enough to enlist?) (Woman 2: Try again.) (Man 2: So you were drawn here to share the grief of other gold star moms?) (Woman 2: That, and my son's death left me with free time.) (Man 3: If Bush met with every war mom for an hour, it would take half of every business day. Is that reasonable? (Woman 2: Let the war dads, kids and widows share the other half!) (Woman 1: We have the moral authority to oppose the war because our kids are dead. Are all your kids alive? Then shut up.) (Woman 5: Go, insurgents!) Coming soon: More moms!
