If these Dems had been at The Alamo...us Texans would all be speaking Spanish today as the official language not just as an extra one.

They'd have used the cry "Remember the Alamo" as an argument not to oppose Santa Anna.

Next Friday, February 23rd (my 52nd birthday, BTW), marks the 171st anniversary of the beginning of the siege of the Alamo. 

I was born in Texas, though raised in New York, but I've always thought of myself as a Texan.  Going to the Alamo during a family reunion several years ago was one of the most emotional experiences I've ever had, after the birth of my children. 

We need to remember and celebrate those patriots along with the ones at Valley Forge, Iwo Jima and Omaha beach (including my dad) and 1,000 other desperate battles.  They are why we are free now.  And to a man they would spit on the traitors in Congress and the media today.

Ernie Pyle and even lefty Edward R. Murrow would spit on them too.
