It is our responsibility as Americans to provide for the families of those who have died to defend our nation. Raising the military death benefit is not a Democrat or Republican issue - it is an American issue.

That's something lacking in a lot of modern-day families - just talking. It's almost a lost art form.
In winter, the Icelanders told the tales of the brave men of old in their families, and so the tradition was handed on from father to son, the same stories told every winter, till all the particulars became well known.

For many families, gift-giving is a major source of stress - the relentless commercialism, the whining demands, the financial pressure.
