A Soldier's Child

Four-year-old Paige Bennethum really, really didn't want her daddy to go to Iraq.
So much so, that when Army Reservist Staff Sgt. Brett Bennethum lined up in formation at his deployment this July, she couldn't let go.
No one had the heart to pull her away.

9/11 Remembrance of Men and Women in Uniform

Martin Treptow- WW1 Soldier, KIA, in his diary: "My Pledge," "America must win this war. Therefore, I will work, I will save, I will sacrifice, I will endure, I will fight cheerfully and do my utmost, as if the issue of the whole struggle depended on me alone." We must, on this day, 9/11, of Remembrance of the lost, we must remember those in the military that are still making the sacrifice, that carry in their hearts and minds, and in spirit, the words of Martin Treptow. They even take time to pray for our country, and pray for the support of each other. May God bless our brave men and women in uniform.

Outraged By...Saddened By

Tiller, a late term abortionist gets gunned down, we don't know the motivation, or anything about the guy. Two US soldiers get gunned down by a Jihadist here in America. One dies. Obama's statements and how much time passed before he made them is telling.

Three days after the soldiers, of whom Obama is their Commander in Chief, he makes a statement:
“I am deeply saddened by this senseless act of violence against two brave young soldiers who were doing their part to strengthen our armed forces and keep our country safe. I would like to wish Quinton Ezeagwula a speedy recovery, and to offer my condolences and prayers to William Long’s family as they mourn the loss of their son.”

Hours after the shooting of the abortionist: "I am shocked and outraged by the murder of Dr. George Tiller as he attended church services this morning. However profound our differences as Americans over difficult issues such as abortion, they cannot be resolved by heinous acts of violence."
It's disconcerting he holds an abortionist in higher esteem than the soldiers that protect this country. The soldiers were gunned down, in an act of terrorism on our own soil. Anyone mobilized to ensure military recruiting stations are secure? No. Anybody mobilized for Tiller? Yep, Holder, Attorney General, sent folks out for security.
Priorities. Obama is outraged by the murder of Tiller, but only saddened by the murder of a US soldier and the wounding of another.

Press (MSM) priorities too. Massive coverage of the abortionist's murder. Barely a peep from the MSM about the gunned down soldiers.

Funeral arrangements have been set for the Army private, William Long.

Griffin Leggett Funeral Home in Conway says the family of Pvt. William Long will hold a public funeral at 10 a.m. Monday at the Harlan Park Baptist Church in Conway. The funeral home says Long will be buried at the Arkansas State Veterans Cemetery in North Little Rock at noon Monday.
