Keep the Republic

A blog dedicated to expressing faith in God, hope in America, and a conviction to preserve the principles on which the nation was founded. Benjamin Franklin, after the conclusion of the Constitutional Convention, was asked by a concerned citizen of Philadelphia what type of government had been created after four months of closed-door meetings by the delegates; he responded, "A republic, if you can keep it."

Letterman goes to Iraq

Having watched Dave Letterman since I was in college and he was pulling late duty on NBC, it is touching to read that he and some of his staff went to Iraq on Christmas Eve to perform for the troops stationed there. As he notes in this article, three years ago he performed for the troops in Afghanistan, and last year performed in Baghdad for Christmas. Thanks, Dave -- although I'm sure he realizes that his sacrifice of giving up Christmas at home is nothing compared to the sacrifices made every day by our troops.
