I forget who said it earlier to Support our troops, not the war. For too long it has been used and it needs to stop. It is a slap in the face to every single military member, past or present. To say that one supports the troops but not the job we are doing is disgraceful. I cannot believe that by something so idiotic one can believe that they are supporting us. When I come home I do not want to be welcomed by anyone that has ever uttered those words.

That would be me. I'm sorry you think I am insulting you and your service. I am not. I know you are risking your life every day over there and I appreciate the sacrifice that you are making. I know you are making Iraq a better place.

My point is that you should not have been sent there in the first place.

Sincerely ...



Part of why I am in the military is to defend the freedoms that so many people of America enjoy. Despite the difference of opinions I will be here to defend your freedom and do my best to keep your world free of terror. I will do my best to make sure that your family sleeps safe at night. I will do my best to protect your future.
