3. I hope your son will stay safe while he is in Iraq.
----My problem remains - why are we in wars over there when those countries pose no threat to us?-----

This is a good question for which I have no answer. I wish Obama would bring our troops home. Our military defense is supposed to be just that -- for defense. It seems to me we should not be squandering this resource on illegal invasions of other countries and putting our loved ones at risk. I hope your boy will come home to you soon, unscathed.
