Remember Me By Salena Zito

Time punishes war. The war in Iraq is no exception; as each moment passes, public resolve, politics and passion erode its mission.

Collectively, many Americans tend to remember the mistakes and politics that led us there, rather than the faces of the men and women who serve and defend us.

Seven months ago, Lizzie Palmer, a young lady from Columbus, Ohio, barely over the threshold of childhood, felt compelled to do her part to remind people of those faces.

“Time punishes war. The war in Iraq is no exception; as each moment passes, public resolve, politics and passion erode its mission.”

Actually, it is not time that is the culprit here. It is the constant, unrestrained and concerted efforts of all those among our own who have given themselves over to the cause of the enemy’s success and our own failure.

Enemy sympathizers, defeatists, cowards, knee jerk betrayers and all their fellow filthy ilk. That is the cause and the source of eroding resolve.
