I did not know the names of every single soldier killed or MIA in World War II and I don’t think I need to know for this war.

I am a USAF military wife of 20 years. My husband served in the first Gulf War while we were living at Lackland AFB in Texas so I know firsthand what soldiers and their families go through.

I do not need to see the war on TV and it is not my place to tell generals how to do their jobs.

Protesters should fall off the planet. We did not knock on Saddam’s door, he came knocking on ours by funding Osama bin Laden’s airplanes.

To quote FDR, they have awoken a great giant.

I have been saying Saddam needs to be killed since the first war; finally we are trying to do it.

The worst thing Congress did was revoke the Central Intelligence Agency’s ability to take out heads of state. The next time someone knocks on the United States’ door they will know what will happen to them.

I have watched my husband work to protect our freedom. I have a son and I am willing to watch him go to protect his freedoms and way of life.

I am willing to give my life for my freedoms. Are you?

Many men have died for this way of life we enjoy. How many are willing to die for it today?

I count myself as one of them.
