Well said. Unfortunately Obama will pay no attention because in his mind he knows what is best for us.

I also have to say well said. Oh by the way that is one of my favorite songs of all time. God bless all of our soldiers. Dale

ThANK YOU for posting this! My youngest son called me a few days ago, saying his soon-to-be wife saw it, and just broke down. He got back from Iraq last Jan, will be re-deploying early next year ( 19D, Cav Scout ). May God bless all those who serve!!

I recently retired after 26 years Civil Service working for the AF.  I also served 24 years active duty, retiring in 1978.  The point, I have many years working with the young men that serve.  Most are of the same opinion as this young man.  

I have donated my time to several community ventures since retiring and have found that most of the young people who support Obama, and are opposed to eliminating terrorist,  have no military experience, generally live in a household where every whim is answered to, have little or no responsibility, and don't give a damn about you, their freedom, or our country.  As long as they get what they want they are happy.

It is refreshing to know there are still those among us that have suffered the pains of war and still believe in what this country has stood for since it's beginning.

About the time I am ready to give up on this country  I see a young man or woman in uniform or  hear someone in the media whining we have so many over seas and my hope is renewed that we still have that many people that step up, to serve our  country
