An essay that won a 6-year-old girl four tickets to a Hannah Montana concert began with the powerful line: 'My daddy died this year in Iraq.'
'We did the essay and that's what we did to win,' Priscilla Ceballos, the mother, said in an interview with Dallas TV station KDFW. 'We did whatever we could do to win.'

The "mother" obviously hasn't assimilated into the U.S. Culture, circa 2007 ... or maybe she has? The use of a "false death" in Iraq or anywhere of a fictitious service member by a parent "helping" her SIX YEAR OLD DAUGHTER is beyond the pale.
Since the MSM has "the facts," I pity the child ... the "mother" is on her own!
