"Blessed are the peacemakers;
for they shall be called the children of God."
Matthew 5:9

Bless your son, and bless our troops.
They pay the bill for our own freedom every day.

I wish all our troops could know there are many MILLIONS of us who support them in this mission, because we know they are the front line defending and preserving our way of life, our freedoms, our safety and security, and our rights, including the right to make complete asses out of ourselves as the MSM, the liberal loonies, and way too many of our politicians have done. We DO CARE, we DO APPRECIATE it, and we WILL NOT QUIT on them. We pray for the safety of our troops, and the success of their mission, and we will support them there and at home on their return. God bless and keep them all, and may He give them strength, courage, and the knowledge that our faith in them and our appreciation of all they do for us is undiminished. Thank you for posting this.

Please tell your son "You are not alone".

Not my son. Someone's son, for sure. I have no way to contact the author or his father.

Just pass it on and maybe it will wake up some idiots in Washington.

Thank you Swordmaker for sharing this with us. It is very good.


This is absolutely RIGHT ON! As Right on as thing I've read of late. To tell the truth, I'm getting really sick of all of the BICKERING and Pettiness! There is a life outside VERY SMALL idiots like sheehanigan, suzie suran-wrap, and hanoi-jane(ole hag-bag), smurtha and their ilk....they all act like little kids doing their put-down stuff, throwing (toys)temper tantrums and wah,wahing to get their way! It's grow-up time kids....and they will be the very ones crying for mountains to fall on them in the Battle of All Battles!!
They are truly selling America right down the drain. That's why so many people are taking the time out of their busy schedules to make the trip to DC to the 'Gathering of Eagles' and 'These Colors Don't Run!!' Support the Troops Rally.

All of this sound to familiar as I have a son that was on deployment to Iraq for a year. Yes, he was wounded and may have to be Medically discharged, but if not, he would willing to return in a heartbeat, because he like Thousands of others....He believes in the Mission and he believes in all of good that he saw first hand having been accomplished. Although, it may seem so for a brief time, David Jeffers, please tell your son that "He is Not Alone" as there are many stateside that "Have his back!"

Thanks for posting this.

This young man is representative of thousands of our Armed Forces who share the same feelings.

Will the MSM publish these words? Absolutely not! They are on a mission to search out and find any negative comment from our men and women in uniform and use those words to trumpet the "cut and run" bunch and suggest that there are thousands like 'em.

As for me, rather than "cut and run" I'll be cutting and pasting this to my e-mail recipients.

Thanks again for posting these words from a true American Hero.

"The American people have not been asked to sacrifice anything. Unless you are in the military or the family member of a servicemember, its life as usual...the war doesn't affect you."

Ain't that the truth, and that is part of the problem.

Our troops will prevail, they are on the right side of history.
