While I pray for the safe return of every one of these brave people, I have to comment on one irony: Southerners send a vastly disproportionate number of their youth to fight in America's wars. Often, these wars are formented by a federal govt that treats the South and its people with nothing but contempt. The elites in DC who are encouraging this war no doubt view the people of such places as Tennessee as ignorant rednecks. These same elites would never dream of having their own kids serve in the military and are perfectly willng to allow the hicks of the South to do the fighting and dying.

I guess my one point is this: the people of the South should be a lot more judicious in their willingness to serve the government. They should withhold their services until they, their culture, and their ancestors are given a heck of a lot more respect by our political and cultural elites than is currently the case.

Yes, God bless them all. Brave, courageous, strong, mighty, intelligent, caring, dutiful and Americans! Wow, what a contrast to the hollywood and music crowd. Yipes...makes my skin crawl to even think of the hollywood and music crowd. Boy, they are digging themselves into a hole they will not climb out of. OH well, stupid is as stupid goes.

Back in my hometown there's a family where every male for 3 generations (by my count 9 total) has been in the Marines except one. He went into the Air Force and his dad was seriously pissed! My high school graduating class in 1987 had about half of the males end up in the military of one form or another. This is in Oregon BTW, otherwise known as the "Left Coast". Of course, this is in a (former) fishing and logging community nowhere near the Peoples Republic of Portland.
