I am a parent who worries night and day about my son in Iraq.

I am a parent who beams with pride that my son is fighting for you freedom, the Iraqi's freedom and my freedom.

And I will fight for the honor of any brave American who has shown that they will do the same. The Sen. is one of those people. I am 180 degrees opposite in his view of the Iraqi Liberation, but I feel obliged to defend his honor since he is only saying he doesn't think the war should be politicized. The President agreed with him until a few days ago. Personally, I agree with what the President is doing, but I can understand the Senator's position.

I do not have a son in Iraq.

I have both family and friends serving.

I pray for them daily.

I will not use that link to them or the daily worry I feel for them as a excuse to defend any veteran who dishonors a younger generation by standing by and allowing them to be undermined.

You should not either.
