Today is the appointed day for rejoicing about the victory in Iraq.
This has been a different kind of war and I think we all have had a
tough time getting our arms around what victory actually means. I will
stand with security conditions that allow the Iraqis to govern
themselves. They seem to be doing so and we continue to move back as
they step forward. Congratulations to all who were part of those
efforts and godspeed to all who gave their lives or were wounded in the
cause. Those who fought knew they could win, and they did.
Cass De oppresso liber. A veteran is someone who, at one point in his life wrote a blank check Made payable to "The United States of America" for an amount of "up to and including my life." That is Honor, and there are way too many people in this country who no longer understand it. -- click to go to site
