Wait... Hold up...
No one knows what war is like other than my family. Period.
Her quick blog response?
My family understands the demands of war, in reference to our family's generations of service to the nation, including that of my grandfather, father and brothers. But obviously, there are many American families that have made, and are making, the ultimate sacrifice in the pursuit of defending freedom. And those families and those sacrifices should be honored above all else. I regret my comments as they were delivered. I certainly did not mean to diminish the sobering fact of these families' sacrifices in any way.I don't buy it. Most men in my family served.
