Conservatism Lives!

I just finished a fantastic book that I want to recommend to any and all readers of the RR blog; “American Heroes In The Fight Against Radical Islam” (available here). The book was written by Oliver North and edited by a guy that I have had the pleasure of getting to know a bit over the last two years named Chuck Holton. The book is a fascinating, ground level account of North’s experiences while he was “embedded” as a journalist with the Marines in Iraq on nine separate occasions. It pays tribute to our men and women who serve and fight on our behalf and on the behalf of the Iraqi people. I think you’ll be hard pressed to find a better representation of what our troops are doing and why.
