Land of the Free....Because of the Brave !
It's a popular play on words, taken from our National Anthem (how many Libs can sing the words to that one) that sums up our sentiments here at AM. Without the sacrifices of so many over the course of history, it's a shame to think where we would be as a nation.
They've engaged the forces of tyranny through the years. They deserve our respcet and admiration, it pains me to see so many of our fellow citizens disparage them whenever they can. The list of those who lend aid and comfort to the enemy is endless, but those of us who love and appreciate our service men and women, we know who the internal enemies of our nation are..........
Not only do our brave fighting soldiers have to deal with the enemy on the battlefield, they have to deal with these idiots on the home front as well. There is one thing to be against the war, to voice your legitimate dissent. But it is another thing to lend aid and comfort to the enemy and that, my friends, is what some of our "anti war heroes" are doing. Plain and simple.....traitors.We celebrate our nation's veterans on this day. WWI, WWII, Korea, Vietnam, Desert Storm, Iraq.....you are all hereos. All who have served, whether in combat or not, deserve our respect now more than ever. As the son of a military man, I know firsthand the sacrifices that are made on the part of our veteran's families. I for one am grateful for their sacrifice and they will always be with me.
There is a famous saying and I'm not sure where it came from. But I find it appropriate here. Forgive me if I don't give credit where credit is due....."ALL GAVE SOME...........BUT SOME GAVE ALL."
Thank you.....................CG
CG my brother..
You have said it so beautifully. It is a pleasure sharing the writes of America Matters with you.
God Bless all of our Veteran's since the beginning of our great country to the present. If we take the time to look around us and soak in the majesty of this country and the freedoms we enjoy, we can see that it was all established, maintained, and defended by our America Veteran. Thanks Vets!
Thx LT....

Happy Veteran's Day to every single person who served the greatest country in the world, you all deserve more than a grateful nation could ever give back. Special greetings to my friend LT as well! Happy Veteran's Day!!
CG , LT You both are tops brothers. Thanx for all of it my friends.
