Continuing answering Number 3:

No less than SEVEN current members of Congress have children in the US Military and therefore at risk.

Sen. Tim Johnson, D-SD
Son Brooks Johnson, 31, is in Iraq, a staff sergeant with the Army's 101st Airborne Division.

Rep. John Kline, R-MN
Son, Dan Kline, is training reserve units in Georgia that are about to be sent to Iraq.

Rep. Todd Akin, R-MO
Rep. Duncan Hunter, R-CA
Rep. Marilyn Musgrave, R-CO
Rep. Ed Schrock, R-VA
Rep. Joe Wilson, R-SC

Three sons in service... one may be sent to Iraq.

Notice that six of the seven are Republicans... while the congress is about 47% Democrat.
