p>To make a long story short, Mr. Mehan attempts to apply a different standard to GOP elected politicians than to the Dems. br> -- Ken Shreve /p>

I must say that it has been a long time since the title of a piece made me mad at 5 a.m. But reading the "Letting It all Ride" kicker line to the piece written by Mehan has sorely angered this mother of a serving pilot. He's on his fourth tour now. To use a phrase found in casinos and the like to title a piece strikes me as the height of disrespect. And I'm not nearly as worried about the political party that sent him there as I am his safety and whether or not, if we give up too early and come home, the terrorists will follow us. I've seen that happen before.

p>Any author who writes a piece on the war ought to at least think about honoring those serving right now. Find another title....call it "Sticking Even When It Hurts"...or something much less undignified. br> -- Beverly Gunn br> East Texas Rancher br> Proud Mother of Serving Pilot....his 4th tour /p> p> WHAT'S THE MATTER WITH TEXAS? br> Re: David Hogberg's Spousal Benefits Abuse
