A little something I picked up.......

Close Your Eyes

I want you to close your eyes and picture in your mind the soldier
at Valley Forge, as he holds his musket in his bloody hands.
He stands barefoot in the snow, starved from lack of food,wounded from months of battle and emotionally scarred from the eternity away from his family surrounded by nothing but death and carnage of war. He stands tough, with fire in his eyes and victory on his breath.
He looks at us now in anger and disgust and tells us this...

I gave you a birthright of freedom born in the Constitution and
now your children graduate too illiterate to read it.
I fought in the snow barefoot to give you the freedom to vote and you stay at home because it rains.
I left my family destitute to give you the freedom of speech and you remain silent on critical issues, because it might be bad for business.
I orphaned my children to give you a government to serve you and
it has stolen democracy from the people.
It's the soldier not the reporter who gives you the freedom of the
press.
It's the soldier not the poet who gives you the freedom of speech.
It's the soldier not the campus organizer who allows you to
demonstrate.
It's the soldier who salutes the flag, serves the flag, whose
coffin is draped with the flag that allows the protester to burn the flag!!!
"Lord, hold our troops in your loving hands. Protect them as they
protect us.
Bless them and their families for the selfless acts they perform
for us in
our time of need. Amen."

 

 

That's a good one. I think it's about time we take this country back, for what it was founded for.
I would love for anybody here to point out seperation of church and state in the Constitution. For that matter, why is it that atheists get freedom of religion, while any person who believes in God, or any gods, gets none? This is one thing that has pissed me off for too long. Second revolution, anyone?

Amen. Never heard it so well put.

 

Very Nice
