As Memorial Day Approaches....
« on: May 26, 2010, 05:07:24 PM »
Let's remember what it's REALLY about...

Thanks to all our veterans and those still serving....




















It is the
VETERAN,
 not the preacher,
 who has given us freedom of religion.

It is
the VETERAN,
 not the reporter,
  who has given us freedom of the press.

It is
the VETERAN,
 not the poet,
who has given us freedom of speech.
   
It is
the VETERAN,
not the campus organizer,
who has given us freedom to assemble.

   
It is
the VETERAN,
 not the lawyer,
who has given us the right to a fair trial.


 
It is
the VETERAN,
 not the politician,
Who has given us the right to vote.

Thank you to all our military people.....those who have passed, those who are Veterans, those who continue to serve. Without your sacrifices we would not have the priviledge of living in these United States of America.


Special thanks to my Mom, Dad and Son.

To those who have passed: Thank you for keeping us free.

To Vets: You are the real citizens. We are merely civilians.

To those still serving: Thank you for continuing the fight.

To those up and comers: Thank you in advance.

THANK YOU for what you do!

I just saw this I know it is late but it was still great now someone should send it to the POTUS

Politics is the art of looking for trouble, finding it, misdiagnosing it and then misapplying the wrong remedies.
