........I wonder if others here are outraged as I was to see Rep. Murtha on the Memorial Day concert last night. He was sitting next to the wounded Iraq war vet and his wife. I didn't see it, but you bet, I am outraged. Not surprised though. Liberals like Murtha have no shame when it comes to posturing, pandering, and using any and every photo opportunity that suits their purpose. We find it outrageous, they see it as how you play the political game. They sink to new moral lows every day. Yes, it is disgusting and outrageous.

When I first saw him, I thought I must be seeing things, that it wasn’t possible that he would show up at a Memorial Day concert to show respect both for our fallen heroes, and the wounded....
Outraged...you bet!

I wanted to head to a Veterans’ Memorial today, but the weather here is very unsettled today. There was a shower a few minutes ago, and everything is saturated. Quite a number of road closings due to high water.

Written by Lt. Colonel John McCrae, who died January 28, 1918 while on active duty in France
In Flanders fields the poppies blow
Between the crosses, row on row,
That mark our place; and in the sky
The larks, still bravely singing, fly
Scarce heard amid the guns below.
We are the Dead. Short days ago
We lived, felt dawn, saw sunset glow,
Loved, and were loved, and now we lie
In Flanders Fields.
Take up our quarrel with the foe:
To you from failing hands we throw
The torch; be yours to hold it high.
If ye break faith with us who die
We shall not sleep, though poppies grow
In Flanders Fields.
