Memorial Day Weekend
Memorial Day, also called Decoration Day
This weekend we honor all who have made the ultimate sacrifice in service to America..God please let them know, I humbly thank them all. ~ Chrissie
.
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.
John McCrea

Ron Paul a candidate for President. Has said in so many words that 9-11 was an inside job. In other words, Bush did it. He also supports the Mosk at Ground Zero. This coming Memorial Day we honor the Men who have gave their lives, so that Morons like Ron Paul can spout this kind of crap. This is the kind of country we have.
Once again obama will miss the laying of the rief on the tombs of the unknowns. If this is planned, then this is good. He does not belong on that sacred ground, for he would only defile it .

Mark, Ron Paul is a nut case how horrible for him to say such things.
Mark ditto all of this well said.
