VETERANS DAY 2008
Executive Mansion,Washington,Nov. 21, 1864.
Dear Madam,
I have been shown in the files of the War Department a statement of the Adjutant General of Massachusetts that you are the mother of five sons who have died gloriously on the field of battle.
I feel how weak and fruitless must be any word of mine which should attempt to beguile you from the grief of a loss so overwhelming. But I cannot refrain from tendering you the consolation that may be found in the thanks of the Republic they died to save.
I pray that our Heavenly Father may assuage the anguish of your bereavement, and leave you only the cherished memory of the loved and lost, and the solemn pride that must be yours to have laid so costly a sacrifice upon the altar of freedom.
Yours, very sincerely and respectfully,
A. Lincoln

ISN'T THIS THE QUALITY WE SAY WE WANT...?
...In a leader?A John McCain story for last-minute undecideds.
HE REALLY IS ONE OF US
You may not like him, vote for him, or share any other thing with him...But Barack Obama is a citizen of the United States. Yes. Definitely. The state of Hawaii is now confirming the authenticity of his birth certificate.
I love getting your email about almost anything. But...please lay off this one, now, ok?
