From the time the twin towers fell on September 11, 2001, I have supported our military efforts to confront our declared enemies and to try to "drain the swamp" that supports, or creates their misery. That effort, however, has cost me very little in a personal way so far. That could change in the years ahead, since I have two young grandsons that are growing up right now and will have to face whatever is out there in the years ahead.
I have had to ask myself, where would I stand if it were my sons, if it were my grandsons, who were in uniform, and who were facing death, and/or possible disfigurement from war wounds, etc. So far, I think that my politics would still be the same (that is, if we will fight to win, not play around, but use our power without apology.)
If it is bad enough to go to war over, it is bad enough to win.
Anyway, here is a website to do something right now for the troops who stand between us and certain major and on-going acts of terror.
Join me in giving our support in both moral ways, like prayer, cards, and then, consider some cash.
Here is one of many ways. I will tell you who I support financially, later. Click here, http://www.letssaythanks.com/FromTheTroops.html and listen to this Marine's song.
Don't support a war politically that only costs the troops and their families. Do something now.
Later.

I support the troops, but I do not support the policies of a government that uses military action to futher their own agenda. I don't think all the cards were on the table when the U.S. decided to attack Iraq, they were up the cabinets sleeves. And if the bombs ever start popping in the U.S. can we say the war was worth it? Wasn't this action taken to stop the terrorists there instead of fighting them here. Of course we can't fight them here because we would have to immobilize all the muslims to get the right ones. Plus can you imagine how the government would deal with a guy named Mohammed Perez Lupe Gonzales Jr.! Later
