War is an ugly thing, but not the ugliest of things. The decayed and degraded state of moral and patriotic feeling, which thinks that nothing is worth war, is much worse. The person who has nothing for which he is willing to fight, nothing which is more important than his own personal safety, is a miserable creature and has no chance of being free unless made and kept so by the exertions of better men than himself. —John Stuart Mill (1868)

"Love one another as I have loved you. There is no greater love than a man laying down his life for his friends." - John 15:12-13

Gold Star Father Wroblewski - "A soldier only dies if he's forgotten."

"Go out of your way to go up to a soldier and thank him for his service."

Never forgotten !!!

Connoly is chastising leftist disrupters who attemped to upstage the goldstar familys

Listening to these wonderful patriots speaking of their love of America and the troops, I can draw such a vast contrast with the hatred spewed by the Cindybots. God bless all these people for their support of Troops like my son and all the others.

God bless the troops and God bless America! Thanks for the ping, Tonkin!

[Bahbah]

The guy from the American Legion is giving it to the MSM.

[CedarDave]

Ronald Conley past national commander of the American Legion speaking how courageous is was for these family members to again suffer the pain by telling their story once more.

Also says how much ice-water must be in the veins of the anti-American demonstrators to march through this crow when the family members are speaking. (That was the disturbance earlier, I guess.)

[chgomac]

Will call 765-464-3080 and ask for a rebroadcast.

Thanks for the number!

[Reagan Man]

Anti-war protesters marching through the crowd while the Gold Star Family Members were speaking.

Shameful. Disrespectful. Inconsiderate SOB's

Hey ya'll - been watching as much as I can of the rally.

Armymarinemom - YOU WERE AWESOME!!!
Armymarinedad - hug her for me, ok??

Saw JimRob and Kristinn and probably more but didn't know where they were from their faces! LOL!!

We had a minor accident here (one kid bumped head pretty good) so we had to resort to kiddy TV shows for the littles. I just wanted to pop on this thread and tell everyone I am so proud of what they're doing in DC today. I watched about 5 minutes of yesterday's train wreck and had to guffaw at the sign that called President Bush a "Lier" (sic) Obviously related to the idiot trolls who show up here from time to time! LOL

Kristinn, dude, you rock.
