Keep the faith, my friend!
Of course, your brave band can not hold back the hordes. But you make a powerful symbolic statement!
It is huge for those of us who can do little but complain to each other to know that there are men putting their bodies into this fight.
You are a great inspiration and far more important to our cause than you are feeling right now! Keep up the great work. I salute you.
God bless every one of you there. If I could make it happen, I would replace almost everyone in the Senate with you all.
