From the Duluth News Tribune:

Lourey to join antiwar protesters

Minnesota state Sen. Becky Lourey said Tuesday she will join a grieving California mother who is protesting the Iraq war outside President Bush's Crawford, Texas, ranch.
"This is mother to mother," said Lourey, whose son, Matthew Lourey, was killed in the war in May.
Lourey, a DFLer from Kerrick, said she just wanted to "put her arms around" Cindy Sheehan and let her know she's supported.
Sheehan, whose son Casey was killed in the war in 2004, has been camping outside the president's ranch since Aug. 6, demanding that Bush answer her questions about the war.
"This isn't about politics," said Lourey, who has been a consistent critic of the war.
