Memorial Day - Hoorah for the Vets and Military!

You military and ex-military. Thank you ever so much for putting your lives on the line for the protection of the homelands.

Unfortunately, at times you also had to put your lives on the line for different presidents’ political gains, monetarily gains, and their personal paranoia. That just isn’t right.

Its troubling to put things into context now with this mess going on in Iraq, isnt it? There are some times when i think the military sees itself as being beyond criticism.

This probably isnt a good day to speak of all that.

I think you are right, its a good day for remembering the sacrifice of others....

Steve,
Yep, the military personnel either made sacrifices or were prepared to make sacrifices.
Sometimes they get caught up in the moment, which is only human.
Hey, I made sacrifices too! This weekend I had to spend $2 in road tolls!
