Brandon, Jeremy; time to come home boys

I am sure you will have a welcome committee at the border, airport, or wherever you show up. That our you could be a, ahem, man and turn yourself in.
Two Americans who deserted the U.S. Army to protest against the war in Iraq lost their bid for refugee status in Canada on Thursday, and the Canadian government made it clear they were no longer welcome.

The Supreme Court of Canada declined to hear appeals from the two men, Jeremy Hinzman and Brandon Hughey, over decisions by immigration authorities -- backed in two subsequent court rulings -- that they were not refugees in need of protection.

Opposing the war on the belief that it was illegal and immoral, the two deserted when they learned their units would be deployed to Iraq, and came to Canada.

If deported to the United States, they say they face a court martial and up to five years in prison.
Sure, you may be able to draw it out in the Canadian legal system or wait for President Hillary Clinton to pardon you - but that is OK. Keep waiting. Some families will always wait - some perhaps for a son or daughter that had to take your place.

Sleep well.

    Hey I know this is off topic but I was wondering if you knew
    of any widgets I could add to my blog that automatically tweet my newest twitter updates.

    I've been looking for a plug-in like this for quite some time and was hoping maybe you would have some experience with something like this. Please let me know if you run into anything. I truly enjoy reading your blog and I look forward to your new updates.

    Hello! Quick question that's entirely off topic. Do you know how to make your site mobile friendly? My web site looks weird when browsing from my iphone. I'm trying to find a theme
    or plugin that might be able to fix this problem. If you have any recommendations, please share.
    Appreciate it!

    Hello just wanted to give you a quick heads up. The text in your article seem to be running off the screen in Safari.
    I'm not sure if this is a formatting issue or something to do with browser compatibility but I thought I'd post to let you
    know. The style and design look great though! Hope you get the
    problem resolved soon. Cheers
