QUOTE OF THE DAY: The grave markers here all face west, across an ageless and indifferent ocean to the country these men and women served and loved. The thoughts of America on this Memorial Day turn to them and to all their fallen comrades in arms. We think of them with lasting gratitude; we miss them with lasting love; and we pray for them. And we trust in the words of the Almighty God, which are inscribed in the chapel nearby: "I give unto them eternal life, that they shall never perish."
I saw two TV news blabberers today sniffing and sneering that this is the first President ever to be out of the country on Memorial Day. I was appalled. Compared to the great good our President is doing, the news bimbos seemed so petty and ridiculous and out of touch.
Thanks so much for the beautiful pictures, rintense.
Once a year we recognize our fallen heroes and all who have served this country, both past and present. This year we also have the memory of 9/11 and all the innocent people who lost their lives along with the brave men and women who died trying to save others. Since 9/11 we have seen our nation come together in a way that would make our fallen heroes proud. My hope is that we will continue to stay focused and support our brave men and women in uniform and support our President as we deliver justice to those who attacked us and those who want to destroy us.
Our brave men and women in uniform deserve our support and our thanks each and every day, not just one day a year. A simple email of thanks and appreciation to our troops once a month will be a huge contribution in keeping their spirits up. I know that most, if not all, here on "The Dose" do this already, my only hope is that millions of other will do this also. We owe it to them for what they do for us. For me, there isn't a day that goes by that I don't think about our troops around the world and appreciate what they're doing for us. So from the bottom of my heart I thank the brave men and women who are defending our freedom in Afghanistan and other places around the world, and may God bless and watch over each and every one of them.
