All the yellow ribbons on all the cars in the world
If you’ve never read Milo’s accounts of serving in the Middle East, you’re missing out on some heavy, and heady, stuff. You owe it to yourself to check out his blog, The Calm Before the Sand.
Think about this experience, and multiply it by thousands and thousands of troops and families, thousands of times over the last 4 years.
Melanie Morgan can shriek about supporting the troops, Move America Forward can run their pro-war ads 24/7, George Bush can babble about higher callings and greater causes until he’s hoarse – none of it will dull the pain or fill the void these families are experiencing, over and over again.
Bring them home.
