So many people are angered and criticize President Bush for sending our servicemen into battle. Do they not know or remember that these men and women have voluntarily enlisted in the service of our country? They were not forced or drafted to go. It was their choice.

Yes, hundreds have died, but millions of tortured people were liberated from monster tyrants. One who dies for his country has a one-way ticket to heaven.

Babies who are aborted do not volunteer for their horrendous death. They have no choice.

I feel bad for those who have lost a loved one in battle. I lost a 20-year-old granddaughter four years ago (not even for a good cause.) The void left in my heart will never be replaced.

That’s life my friends. Mr. Bush is a great president, he does what he has to do. He defends the U.S. and its people. At the same time, he has heart for his fellow brothers in foreign countries.

I am a Democrat, but in November my vote will be for a man who defends the unborn so they, too, one day can have a choice.
