In light of some recent events, those being some torture memos being released by Barack Obama, Nancy Pelosi being caught in a multitude of lies, The irresponsible spending by our government, The threats from the White House to the investors of Chrysler, And just the total disregard for the U.S. Constitution, which I must remind you is not a living document; It is our guarantee that every natural born citizen and those who legally gained citizenship, that also assimilated into the American culture, are born with certain rights. Life, Liberty, And the pursuit of happiness. And that the only way that those rights can be taken away is through due process by adjudication. In case you forgot…
Now I ask, did you forget the shot heard around the world that started The Revolutionary War? Did you forget what it was the Founding Fathers fought for? Did you forget who fought? Did you forget the risk they took for our freedom? Did you forget About the bravery? What about all the blood that was spilled to gain liberty from tyranny? What about the blood that was spilled to preserve your freedom. And what about the the victims who were lost on September 11, 2001. And did you forget about the the New York City Firefighters that gave their lives to save others. What about the police officers who everyday are the thin line between your happy life and what can be described as the asshole of the world. These brave men and women are out there everyday. They are just like you. They have families, and children who care about them. Children and loved ones who you can bet would be deeply saddened by the loss of one of them. But the comfort they would get from knowing how brave they were. Knowing that it was how they lived that made them heroes and not how they died.
So please, this Memorial Day while your boss is paying you for being off of work, remember those who give us the security and that defend the freedom that we enjoy. Because if they ever stop doing it we won’t have our freedom any more.
