I have been reading National Review now for about four years. It is a fantastic magazine and covers items not covered by the TV media, especially the network media. They cover aspects not normally on page # 1. Things that not only mean something to me, but, to my children and Grandchildren. Things that we will be paying for for four generations.The various wars this country is involved in and no one realizes that the outcomes will determine whether America remains as an Honorable Nation or just one whose opinions are just "Hot Air". I am a former Marine, have seen combat and understand that our freedoms, all of them, have a price. While not ashamed of what we have done, past and recent, everything has a price. Sometimes it's more than just monitary. It's not always someone elses son / daughter.National Review helps focus on the "Big Picture".
