Deployment

My worst fear...deployment. I never thought id be that woman..worried every day and second that her man will deploy to go fight this war. I didn't use to think this war was pointless. I use to think it was the right thing..and we needed to be where we are.

But now that I face the times of someone I love being where we are in this war...I don't like this war one bit. I would like for it to go away, and soon. I don't think they are working quick enough to end this. If they for a second walked in the shoes of a soldier or of a wife of a deployed soldier...they would think twice about everything they do. It must be so nice for politicians to sit in their mansions with their families and say we are going to end this war.

You don't sense our urgency for it to be over. Your soldiers backbones are waiting at home...and we'd really appreciate bringing them home.

No, Daniel is only in basic...not even close to deployment or even talks of it. But its very possible once he graduates from AIT. All to possible.

So republican or democrat...take a walk inside the shoes of a soldier or their family. Then honestly say you are going to end this war and bring our troops home. See if you can say it with a straight face and not have some guilt. Because you can't.

Im not asking them to do the impossible. I know these things take time. But get to it. We have soliders to bring home. Wives waiting..Children waiting...parents waiting.
