Since you said you are sending the link to this thread to Andrew and Rosetta, I want to say something to them.
Rosetta, Andrew, I want to thank you both for your service. It is my prayer that you both recover fully and quickly from your injuries. It humbles me to realize that there are people like you who are willing to go to the enemy in order to protect us and our freedoms.
I am grateful for your service and will keep you in my prayers, along with your families.
Glaswegian, thanks for going to offer a helping hand to Rosetta and Andrew and for expressing our appreciation to them both and expressing to Mr. Card our love and appreciation for him, the President and his staff.
I just don't think I could have more respect for our President Bush and his staff. Mr. Card always impresses me so much and for him to have the strength and internal calm to remain with the President for four more years thrills me.
It comforts me to know that we have such good people surrounding President Bush.
Two great events in one day--this Post from the Glaswegian and Dr. Rice's confirmation with 16 votes. Two insignificant nays from two insignificant members--Kerry and Boxer. The Dems have them both--and we have Andy Card and Condoleeza Rice--two of the many reasons why we'll be watching George W. Bush's Inauguration tomorrow! Blessings on all our troops, on those who wait for them and those who lead them--they are the best! (Is that really your mom, Mr. Card?)
