Message to the Troops

On the 3rd Anniversary of Operation Iraqi Freedom, Defense Sec. Rumsfeld sent this message to our soldiers on the frontline of the War on Terror:

...Throughout history, our military has fought to protect our people and our way of life, in battles the names of which echo through history: Bunker Hill and Gettysburg, Normandy and Midway, the Chosin Reservoir and the Ia Drang Valley.On September 11th, 2001, a new enemy -- extremists motivated by a twisted ideology -- believed that their vicious assault on our homeland would force our country into retreat. They were wrong. That day, the sight of smoke rising from Washington, New York and a field in Pennsylvania filled the American people not with fear, but with resolve...

This is who it's about: our troops and not as Democrats and the Old Media would have you think, about the Bush Administration. God Bless our brave soldiers who are fighting them "over there" so they won't come "over here"!
