Michelle Malkin has her priorities straight:
Before you blow your top about the holiday hassle at the airport, the long lines at the grocery store, all the hours you’ll spend cooking and cleaning, the uninvited guests who are crashing hubby’s football party, and the endless Christmas shopping list that awaits, just stop.
Stop and think of the Johnson family. Army Spc. John Austin Johnson of El Paso, Texas, is recovering from massive head wounds sustained in an IED attack. Johnson is a member of Fort Bliss’ 4-1 Cavalry. He had survived five previous bombing incidents. That is not all.
That isn’t nearly all of it. Do yourself a favor and read the entire post. Afterwards, get down on your knees and pray for the Johnsons, for your family, and our Country. The football can wait a few minutes.

Indeed. So true. Brave men like these, and the ones denied berth in China on Thanksgiving Day, keeping them from their families who were waiting for them.
Good reminder…
