Soldiers, families bearing burden of wars

The last few days, we watched the history of 9/11 on all the networks. It was not just New York City that was attacked. It was all of us and the ideals Americans stand for.
It is too bad that the only ones who have to bear the burden of the war are members of our military and their families. We don't even have to pay extra tax. What a great country.
Pray for our leaders. Give them the wisdom to be worthy of the good people and soldiers who make up this great and wonderful country. Check out http://
