The ‘Rents of War
With all the attention Senator Webb has gotten for having a son serving in Iraq, I was quite surprised to find a pro-war representative who has a son who served 2 tours in Iraq as a Marine. From the Captain’s Quarters, Rep. Duncan Hunter speaks:
At this critical point, the members of Congress who are engaging in political posturing, while our soldiers are carrying out their mission, are doing a real disservice to the troops. Let me add that if the Democrats were to cut off reinforcements and supplies to our troops in Iraq, our troops will never forgive them and I don’t think the American people will ever forgive them either.
Speaking from experience as someone who has had a son who spent two tours serving in Iraq as a Marine, I know that it’s not easy for us here at home to know that our troops are risking their lives expanding freedom in a foreign country. But, even though it’s difficult and dangerous work, it’s also vital.
