Ok, I am a dad of a Special Force team leader. My son is on his way home tonight from a 6 month deployment where he carried out highly dangerous operations. I am offended that Pelosi could not stand in honor of the dad just returning. He makes @it possible for her to play games.

In Destin Fla. to be with Jonathan tomorrow as he receives a Purple Heart from his last deployment. This is an award you never want your son to earn. Proud of his service to his country while others are protesting. They ought to be thankful people like him give them such a right.

For those on the left, it would do well for you to have a son who is engaged in battle in Afghanistan to appreciate the action of the President. At least there are some who are willing to place their lives in harms way to give you the freedom to criticize.

Have you notice There’s a lot of peer pressure in Congress. Can’t they think on their own? Do you always have to look to the right then to the left to see if others will approve of you. Be a person of conviction, not a person who follows the crowd.

Why would I choose NOBTS for Seminary? Simple, Jamie Dew is a breath of fresh air in Theological Education. He is humble, doesn’t strut, has the right emphasis (towel and basin) servant leadership and desires NOBTS to be the seminary for ALL Southern Baptist Students.
