Last of our Troops are on they're way home for Christmas
 

My nephew was one of the last to leave Iraq and will be home for Christmas. He seen more in his young life than most of us would ever want to see. Serving three terms in the war and loosing over half doz. soldiers from his unit is a lot for a young soldier, but he did it with honors and was a true leader. PFC Anthony Palm is his name and is at the beginning of the news video, just wanted to share this with all the military families thanking you for your hard work and service through these tough times, and have a safe and Merry Christmas 8)

No surprise....Obama is just smoke and mirrors. :evil: The military industrial complex rolls on while our good soldiers pay with their lives for some crap-hole country. Let's fix our country first.
