Three people deep at the Vietnam Memorial Saturday,families with their children,people tracing a name,a Vietnam Vet kneeling down,with his hand on the wall,the continuous line stopping to let a member of Rolling Thunder take a picture,and all in silence and respect.

I was there,I saw that.

To all the Vietnam Veterans,Welcome home.

Rolling Thunder is just absolutely amazing. Thinking about what I witnessed in DC a few years ago makes me hate liberals even more....

Edwards wanted to lead a anti-war protest today.

I wonder if he did....

My step-son just graduated from High School and started working at the local Harley dealer here in town this past Monday.

Last Wednesday, a lot of the Rolling Thunder came through town, and a lot of them got their bikes serviced at the dealer. Poor kid didn't get home until after 10:00 that night, says he has NEVER seen so many bikes getting oil changes in his life!

I stopped in on my way home from work to see how he was doing, and chatted with some of the members of Rolling Thunder. I plan on having a Harley of my own and traveling with them next year....God willing....

I hope he didn’t but if he did,... I hope a 200 Scots Pipe and Drum Corps Band showed up drown his drivel out.
