    Rest in Peace Sgt Thomas.. You have made the ultimate sacrifice for your country.. May God bless your family and friends during their time of sadness and grief.. I am grateful that there are young men who are willing to put it all on the line for their country.. At the same time, it is so tragic that so many have to pay the ultimate price.. I also grieve, and hope this war will end soon..

    My prayers and condolences for Sergeant Thomas’s family.

    President Obama remember your promise to us sir, Aug 31 2010.

    What does you Presidency, your efforts mean, if history proves it all to be a fools errand and voters such as myself, a fool for giving you our vote of confidence?

    No more limited war, total victory or total defeat, total war!
