Tomorrow I and my wife will vote for George W. Bush. Tonight, I heard on the radio that an Army soldier was killed in an ambush in southeast Afghanistan. My son is stationed in southeast Afghanistan. I checked Fox news and they have an article about a US soldier killed and two wounded in a patrol near Orgun. My son is on a patrol near Orgun. I do not care if it is him, tomorrow we will still vote for Bush. God bless America and God bless President Bush.
I have not told my wife. She is worried enough that Kerry might win. She does not need this additional worry.
We can always count on you!
God bless you, your wife and your son. May he wrap you in peace. Godspeed to your son.
We're praying for you and your strength. We're also
praying for the family of the trooper if it isn't your son. They all deserve our prayers.
We know, however, that someone has been lost, and this is what happens, however sadly, when young heroes like your son saddle on their patriotic responsibilites to the rest of us. We cry not in our loss, however great it is, but in our undying admiration of these fine young men.
God bless you, God bless your son, and God bless the USA!

I can not imagine what you are going through, and what agony it must be on a daily basis to have a son stationed overseas. Hopefully your son is safe. And hopefully we'll win this war soon and all of our boys will be coming home. Their mission is just, and they are doing it with unbelievable honor. But of course they are...they're Americans. Good luck, and God bless.
bump and a prayer
Praying that your worry is all for nothing in the end. God bless.
Prayers and comfort to you and your entire family, and safety to your son.
I wish there was a way to reach across a computer screen to hold a hand in comfort.
Oh my dear freeper! My prayers go with you and your family.
Words fail me at this time. I know you will feel the love we all have for you...
That being said, I'll say a quick prayer for you and yours.
Prayers up... Please keep us posted. God bless you...
Intercession from here!!! Let's all let him be in Jesus hands. An d prayers for the family of that brave soldier killed, "Greater love hats no man!" And prayers for the injured, and prayers of protection to all the other gallant defenders of Freedom. And prayers for the man chosen by God to lead us. Let us be faithful enough to God that he we give a leader of His choosing. Let is also have a heart of gratitude for to God for President Bush being our President in these times that have been and are trying.
Please Have Faith, The word has not been delivered
Prayers up!
For the safety and speedy victory and return of all our Armed Forces in service of our country, and especially for this patrol, Lord have mercy!
