This blog is looking for wisdom, to have and to share. It is also looking for other rare character traits like good humor, courage, and honor. It is not an easy road, because all of us fall short. But God is love, forgiveness and grace. Those who believe in Him and repent of their sins have the promise of His Holy Spirit to guide us and show us the Way.

Mourning our huge loss
Despite a request from the Special Operations Command to keep the names secret, the Pentagon yesterday released the names of the 30 Americans killed when their Chinook helicopter was hit by a rocket-propelled grenade launcher in Afghanistan. Those killed included some Navy Seals who were part of the raid that killed Osama bin Laden. 30 of the best Americans one could ever hope to find. They had been called in to support Army Rangers who were in a fire-fight with Taliban terrorists who were planting roadside bombs. Who is supplying the Taliban with these weapons?

Obviously an inside job. Some sense of justice from the Taliban I suppose. I think our mission there is done and it's time to hand over the keys. Like Ben Franklin said, It's a republic if you can keep it.
