Denny Rehberg: “I have been disturbed by the headlines depicting extremists protesting the disarmament of Saddam Hussein even before it…”

“I have been disturbed by the headlines depicting extremists protesting the disarmament of Saddam Hussein even before it begins. I sadly read about a group of anarchists trashing a 9-11 memorial in California, tearing up dozens of American flags. In doing so, these people send a caustic message to our young men and women in uniform who, instead, need our support. I am proud of our troops. In my home State of Montana, our citizens admire these brave young people. Two weeks ago in Missoula, a large gathering of community leaders, families, and senior citizens gathered to show their support for the people in uniform who have volunteered to put their lives on the line for this country. Several days ago, a similar gathering in Kalispell turned out to show support for those who serve our country. Last weekend, more than 200 Montanans gathered in Billings, shouting 'USA' and 'God Bless America.' In each of these cases, Montanans gathered not to criticize our role in the Middle East, but to say, We love our country and we support our President. They gathered to tell our young men and women in uniform, We love you, we are proud of you, go with God, and may His grace surround you should you enter harm's way.”
