We need to finish what we started

To the editor:I no longer wonder what is wrong in our country. We have brought up our children to believe now that they do not have to finish what they start. Look at our government. Congress cannot finish what it started. And it will cost us a whole lot more than we've lost already in 9-11. Don't believe me? Keep watching for the future. We'll be in it more than we were before. The terrorists are hoping we get our troops out of there and leave Iraq defenseless.
