The people
whose names we should be talking about in Fort Hood are NOT Nidal Malik
Hasan and Barack Hussein Obama. They are the names of the people below
- whose families are beginning a process you cannot imagine unless you
have been there.

We expect, or at least prepare, for a death in combat. We kiss them. Love them. S...end them love letters and scribbles in crayon from our children. On base, we expect they are safe. Our guard is down.

When
a soldier, sailor, airman, or marine dies on a US Base - on US soil -
the sting is deep and unimaginable. The families of the fallen in Fort
Hood must be put first. Not the poor, angry, conflicted muslim who
murdered them in cold blood. And definitely not the celebrity &
egotastic Commander in Chief who actively campaign for the defeat of
our military's mission up to the moment before he was sworn in.

From my Gold Star Family to everyone of theirs, Godspeed. You are all in our family's prayers.

Merkel was a 35 yr old research chemist, she went to a sauna which, at the time, is very different than our idea of a day spa. No massage. She had dreamt of freedom - that night, she found her freedom as she walked across the border to West Berlin and took in tea with a family of strangers.

She wasn't pampered. She was a woman beholden to a ... Read Morehorrible state that fell. Today, she walked with Gorbachev and Walesa... an East German woman - and leader of a unified Germany. It's very, very cool. Love her.

Just to be clear.... this guy should have been thrown out of the Army on his arse YEARS ago. So, there is plenty of blame to go around. But, it's Obama's watch - and he pledged to make everything wonderful for our military again. He's just thirteen families too late.

Eric Cantor, the second-ranking Republican in the U.S. House, said in an interview on Bloomberg Television’s “Political Capital with Al Hunt,” airing today, that his party needs to be inclusive and criticized some comments by talk-show host Rush Limbaugh.

Whenever I hear "inclusion" and the like, a red flag goes up. Look what happened to Gringrich. Too much time in the beltway, and thinking changes. Where Cantor has been and what he's done is fine. Conservatives need assurances he and other conservatives stay conservative, and make that inclusive.

Cantor has nothing to prove, his record stands for itself. He's a solid conservative who knows being the loudest isn't necessarily the smartest strategy. He's a Common Sense Conservative, with a great voting record and while he does use the word inclusion - I take it differently. I want MORE people persuaded that our point of view, our strategy ...

His confidence speaks volumes.
