w00t! The Bull’s view has been picked up by yet another blogger our there. This time it is Tom Watson over at Tom Watson: My Dirty Life and Times
The following is an excerpt from his post “The Two Soldiers”.
Meanwhile, the blogosphere is getting on this as well – the reaction is pretty well unified, no matter what the politics of the blogger. Here’s an excerpt from a letter Navy veteran (and blogger) Mark Jones:
“I find myself wondering about this incident and have written on my blog questioning how many mothers of black Americans killed in combat may have been denied Gold Star status as well in times not-so distant. After all, it is but a small step from the xenophobic reaction of yours towards Ms. Lagman and old fashioned racial bigotry.”
You can read Mark’s full post here – well worth it.
Thanks for the link, Tom! Also for the comments on the Gold Star Mothers dishonor. If we keep up the pressure we can change this bunch and their beloved “rules” to be truly fair to ALL mothers of our Fallen Heroes.
