God bless George Bush and God bless America!

Amen and thanks.

Thanks for this post.. My son is a US Marine also,and I bristle when I read about this protesting Mother. We haven't had the occasion to meet the President, but I expect what you see is what you get and I believe he wears his heart on his sleeve. He's a good man.

[armymarinemom]

He's a good man.

He gave me that impression after meeting him. The best short description would be a good hearted Texan. I have met plenty of good hearted Texans and he seemed to be just one of them.

Thanks for setting the record straight. And thanks to you and your family for the sacrifices you have and are making. God Bless President Bush, Our Troops and America!

Very welcomed and Amen! I hope so other families try to find a way to speak out.

[Kimmers]

Thank you and yours for your service to this great country...we are free because of the brave...God bless you and all that serve

[gpapa]

God Bless your sons and keep them safe.

God Bless all of our military families

In His name we pray

Thank you armymarinemom. Without you there would be no heroes like your sons.

[armymarinemom]

Amen. One thing I did leave out of the story. When the President introduced our son who was in the center of the crowd about half of the crowd turned their back on the President in order to face our son and to applaud our Military. Our President was grinning ear to ear hearing our troops being applauded and cheered. You could see honest pride of our troops in his face at that moment.

[armymarinemom]

Without you there would be no heroes like your sons.

Without prayers for our troops and our country we couldn't keep our freedom. God bless you for your prayers.

WOW! Thanks for sharing your story. And thank you for your sons' service. Awesome!!!

YW. President Bush acts nothing like what Sheehan and the media portrays. No how, no way. It doesn't make any sense.

[Fudd Fan]

If our President is this compassionate meeting with a family who hasn't lost a loved one, Ms. Sheehan's version of his behavior makes no logical sense.

Your experience is the truly believeable one. I'd bet you're still on a "high" from it! God bless you and your family.

[benjaminjjones]

Thanks for the post. Hope all is well.

Amen! I'm praying for God to comfort her, and also that she wakes up and realizes what she's done:
She spit upon her brave son's memory
She lies about circumstances of her meeting with the President
She implies that the American people do not deserve to be protected and defended.

[George Smiley]

I forgot to add, thank you, ma'am, your husband and your sons for your service to our country.

I'll see if I can track that article down.

Ok I have tears in my eyes....my eldest graduated from OCS this summer and it was such a proud moment for us...I cannot imagine the feeling of pride you had at that momentyou shared with our president...my heart breaks and prayers are offered for anyone that loses their child in this war...I just said a prayer asking God for your sons safety and your continued strength....

Thanks for sharing your wonderful story. May God watch over you and your family.

[armymarinemom]

Thanks for all of the well wishes. Listening to the media portray things differently is appalling.</p>
