Here's my post from last year that I dedicated to our troops. http://www.democrats.org/page/community/post/michellepernula/Cq4m
It saddened me on two fronts: First only two people cared to respond about our troops; Secondly, the first response killed me, she refused to give in to the spirit of supporting our troops and dedicating at least one post for them.
Let's change how we care about our troops this year...I miss our troops, we've forgotten them, the media has been pressure to forget them and our Congress wants to give them another 6 months indefinitely because they fear moving them, but they certainly didn't fear putting them over there in harms way! I think it's because we don't have the funds to move them back and it's wrecking havoc on our economy.
Let's not let our troops down again, let's keep the pressure on Congress to BRING OUR TROOPS HOME! - where they belong! Where they can be husbands, fathers, son's and a working class again, where they can protect our own soil, where they are wanted. Let's build and keep the momentum going.

Are you a proud American of an OIL PRESIDENT and what's he doing to our troops and our economy?
This is what we should be discussing - ISSUES. Write the media and ask for their help too focus on our troops.
"Let me start off by saying that in 2000 I said, 'Vote for me. I'm an agent of change.' In 2004, I said, 'I'm not interested in change -- I want to continue as president.' Every candidate has got to say 'change.' That's what the American people expect." Lil B, Wa DC, Mar 5, 2008
WE have the last word about "Change." Countdown.

Thanks for the 4th of July reminder to honor our independence heroes and our current ones.
