A side of our army the MSM never shows us

MSM = mainstream media - you know, those out-of-touch pretty people who are telling us the next presidential election has only two viable candidates: a completely inexperienced young man whose only qualification seems to be the color of his skin and a power-hungry woman who's leaned socailist all her life but wants you to believe otherwise.

Kari at Healed Waters sent me a link to this picture at Restoring the Years:

Click on the picture to enlarge. And say a prayer for our soldiers who not only risk their lives fighting for us but also put up with the ingratitude and contempt of many back home.

Love,

Tears in my eyes... how tender. :)

On a different note - what - you don't think Barack Obama is a good candidate for president? How dare you - he's Oprah's darling! (Please take this tongue-in-cheek as it is intended - I live in Chicago and remember a year and a half ago, mentally anguishing over my lack of choice at the polls - Obama, the liberal yet seriously more solid candidate or Alan Keyes, crazy freaky supposedly Christian Republican candidate. I voted for neither. The lack of choice is proving to be par for the course when it comes to Chicago/Illinois politics.)

Thank you for the amazing photo of the soldier holding his child.

My Husband is one of those soldiers and I see that side of him always-not everyone does. Maybe this will make people more aware.

Barbara, you can delete this, I just had to wonder out loud.
