Ok, happy Memorial Day to everyone (the army-navy store let us off early). I know I’m the first person to knock our government and its bad decisions in regards to the use of our military….but I’d like to take this time and thank our vets for the sacrifices they’ve made, or have been forced to make, to allow us the freedom that we have. I’d also like to take this time to remind our government of what these men and women have sacrificed and to not make it a waste of their love of country by taking it away from us. I’d also like to thank the vets that didn’t get much thanks, the ones who are still living the nightmare we call Vietnam. While I can’t figure out how to justify the means based on the end, I still think they deserve our thanks the most. They’ve seen what most of us only consider to be a nightmare, and many of them still live it each time they open their eyes. I still don’t fully agree with the concept of modern war, especially when we’re not really doing much but protecting our “interests”, but thanks. We wouldn’t be fighting our government to keep our freedoms if you people hadn’t allowed us to have them in the first place. Tea anyone?

    Amen, sister-friend. You said it.

    Thank you vets!!! Thank you for giving us something to defend (when we are, in fact, defending it). Thank you for giving your lives and limbs so that we can live free. Thank you, thank you, a million times thank you!!!
