This thin wire....

It is a message from our president to its people. The state now owns all the freedoms generations have fought for. What are you going to do about it?

What are we going to do? Is this what Americans really want?

Being the then spouse of an active duty air force officer in the early 2000’s I found myself sitting next to a WW2 vet waiting to see a dermatologist at a military hospital. He began to tell me a story. He was an Air Force pilot flying missions over the Pacific against the Japanese. He told me how his best friend was also a pilot and their wives were best friends too. He then began to tell me about the day he saw his best friend shot down into the Pacific while they engaged with the Japanese and he began to tear up. I told him God bless him for his freedom... He didn’t want my thanks...only for us to remember. These are the men being kept out of the WW2 memorial.

Will we remember? This thin wire....

I’m with you.

I don’t understand how anyone can relish Obama’s ‘victories’.

I will never understand how an America-hating, small minded, envious, lying, anti-Christian, Marxist, con-man like Barack Hussein Obama could be elected President of the greatest nation on earth. Twice.

But apparently many Americans think their fellow citizens need to be put in their place. The new morality is to covet the fruit of your neighbor’s labours, and to take it by force if they object. Anyone who stands against the looting must be punished.

God save the United States of America.

Thanks for sharing that story. I suspect others here similar ones every day and they “don’t want our thanks,only to remember”.

“This thin wire”

This thin wire on the Barrycade looks as thin and small as the small, little, un-patriotic man that ordered it put there.
