I think a submarine is a very worthwhile weapon. I believe we can defend ourselves with submarines and all our troops back at home. This whole idea that we have to be in 130 countries and 900 bases... is an old-fashioned idea.

But if you believe in Christ and that your main goal with your life is supposed to be to honor Him and do His will then you don't have as much pressure as someone who bases all their happiness on whether they're a movie star.

Enough of this occupation terror and abuse. We are not in need of your help. We are able to combat and defeat terrorism and achieve unity. We are not in need of your bases your experience and etc.

My dad and grandpa were in the army and as a country singer you're constantly playing at military bases all across the country and meeting soldiers and their families and hearing their stories.
