Rules of Engagement

Tomorrow there will be a ceremony at the White House. Former US Marine sergeant Dakota Myer will be there to accept the nation's highest honor for his bravery of action two years ago in Afghanistan. But at home with four other families, the families who lost their loved ones that day, the pain of what happened that day will never go away. And at least one of the mothers knows who is truly responsible for her son's death. The bottom line, these young men dies just as this gold star mother says. They died at the mercy of abject political correctness and the absence of leadership by their superiors. Barack Obama established these rules of engagement and Generals McChrystal and Petreaus have dutifully led hundreds to their death in Afghanistan as a result of them.
