...trying to dispel fears that having removed Saddam's regime, U.S. forces are embroiled in a guerrilla war. "I guess the reason I don't use the phrase guerrilla war is because there isn't one," Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld said. The varying groups of resisters "are all slightly different in why they're there and what they're doing." For weeks U.S. commanders have maintained that some of the violence against their forces has been coordinated by Baath Party members, Republican Guard commanders and Fedayeen Saddam operatives who survived the allied push through southern Iraq.

So I just intend to give her a good funeral and I'll be out of here. I guess in way she didn't want to be hauled around again, and I guess she just decided I'm going to take the burden off my son.
