I spoke at a MoveOn.org rally in Austin about the death of my nephew, in Iraq, and the escalation of the war.
I wasn't nervous, like I thought I would be, and it seemed to go over well. My voice broke a couple of times but I "soldiered" on.

"he's so dense, you have to water him twice a day'but that's not it.
