With Inauguration day 2009 upon us, I felt as though it was time to think about the future of our troops and their families. Michelle Obama has stated that her first priority will be the military families, and I hope that is true. However history has shown us that whenever there was a president that was a democrat the first casualty was the military. Democrats tend to try to save move by depriving our military of funds and equipment. Once again I truly hope that the Obamas prove me wrong.
Additionally, I hope the future president does not pull the troops out of Iraq without a declaration of victory. Our troops performed flawlessly in the face of tremendous adversity and they deserve a “win” as much as their fallen comrades who gave their lives for our freedom and the freedom of the Iraqi people.
While you are sitting around, enjoying the freedom afforded to you by the constitution, take a moment and say a quiet prayer for those who are right now living in a desert to protect that freedom.
