Having recently welcomed home a dear friend and soldier deployed to Iraq for the past 12 months, I was saddened to read Michael Huff's speculation that politics were involved in the return of the Fort Hood, Texas, soldiers. We are involved in a challenging situation in Iraq. Our troops, their families and our commander in chief need our continued prayers and support. It is easy to pass judgment when we do not understand all of the facts. Let us put our political biases on the shelf and work together instead of seeking to find fault and point fingers.
