" On this solemn weekend we remember the fallen, and we reflect on all they have given us. Their selfish acts of sacrifice have given freedom another day to live. It is our duty to preserve and promote freedom and liberty, to bring light to the darkest corners of the world, where others hunger for the rights we now hold!"
Hillary Rodham Clinton
It is Memorial Day weekend, that lazy three day weekend that hearlds the approach of summer.
But before you light that grill or pop open a cold one, let's consider...
Freedom of religion is not because of any church. Freedom of the press is not the work of any reporter. Trial by jury of your peers was not won by some attorney. The right to speak your mind and assemble is not to the speech of any politician.
The freedom we enjoy were hard fought and paid for by those willing to say, not on my watch.
As we write this, young men and women stand in harms way just as millions of others did before them.
We don't know about you, but we are not planing on spending our Memorial Day weekend dodging "oncoming rockets" or looking for IED's. We don't sleep on a dirt mattress or use a helmet for a pillow.
To all our men and women who serve, thank you!
We hope each of you have a safe and enjoyable weekend.
God Bless America and all that fought for her.
