Madness
1/16/2007 3:04:37 AM
A heartsick encounter ...
Here at the hotel, at about 4 this morning, a young man came to the front desk to check out. Randall L White from Vine Grove, Kentucky. Where was he headed? "Ft. Hood," he said. And I asked, "By any chance, are you also headed for Iraq?" "Yes," he said. We locked eyes and I told him, "Prayers are with you. Come back!" And he said this to me: "I have to come back. I have a brand new baby daughter!"
I had just finished reading the MSN coverage of Saddam's two henchmen being executed (one of them decapitated), and about the Sunnis being up in arms and calling for revenge. And, here's this young kid headed right into that madness!
Enough is enough!
