Thank you and God bless you.

Thanks Sam. I truly wish I could say that it was worth it. But, I cannot. I only see 58,000 wasted souls. I lost a second cousin there and a high school mate. I live in an apartment here and less than 1/2 mile down the road is the very cemetery where my cousin is buried. His grave is marked with flowers and a flag on it. I cannot drive by going that direction without looking out across that cemetery and catching the flag waving in the breeze over his grave. He has been gone 40 years. He was unmarried. No children. He basically gave his life for nothing. Thanks to a democrat congress.
