In Memory Of...

America,

A leader in the world, honorable to friends and lethal to foes. Now we have a sense of futility about all that we encounter. Iran will have nukes, the well in the gulf may spew oil until August, joblessness will stay around 10% indefinitely, the southern border will not be secured, the economic malaise will track home values which will stay suppressed by foreclosures and defaults, political ads will misrepresent opponents, crises will be used to bludgeon freedom lovers across this land, we won't try to end wars by winning them, etc etc. etc.

This Memorial Day I want to honor and remember all those who risked their lives to further the greatness of this country, and most especially those who lost their lives defending and promoting freedom around the world. We are a great country because we try and uphold the rule of Law and Liberty among our fellow human beings anywhere in the world, We Know we were endowed by our creator certain inalienable rights, Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.

So help US God.
