I think they should be treated with respect until they do something that suggests otherwise.
Ok, couple of things. I'll try to answer all the questions here, but bear with me, it has been a particularly long day.
First, God bless all of you veterans who answered my call here. You all never cease to amaze me with your sense of duty and honor.
Now I have spoken with the mother of one of the Marines (who, as I explained before is a close friend and colleague). We have discussed many options and frankly, have not come to any decision yet on the next course of action.
BillF, you recalled that I was an attorney -- in fact, I am not. My husband is, however. (I just play one on tv. KIDDING, folks.) I have not had the chance to delve into this with the husband however. As I said, busy day today.
But it strikes me as so odd that an insurance company would actively promote this kind of policy. Not sure what, if any legal issues are involved here, but luckily, even though I'm not a lawyer, I am pretty much surrounded by a plethora of good conservative lawyers besides my wonderful, long-suffering husband.
When I did have the chance to listen to Laura Ingraham today, I did not hear her entire show and I did not hear her mention the issue, but I know for a fact that she did talk to both the Marine and his mother on Sunday. I'll follow up and try to determine if she spent some broadcast time on it today.
As soon as I determine what the best possible course of action is, I will follow up on this thread.
Thank you all for your patience....
