Thanks, gents. I've been song-writing for about a year now, and have really been enjoying it. Given the often acrimonious nature of the debate in Washington about the war (and in other national capitals around the world), I felt the need to write this song about how the manner in which that debate occurs can impact our troops (and our adversaries). I'm a twenty-year veteran (retired from active duty now), and I know how I'd feel about it if I were "over there" right now.
Our troops are doing a magnificent job, and we need to support them and their mission (the two are inseparable). So long as they do not feel the cause is lost, we need to set politics aside and let them do their job.
