Thank you
Thank you to the men & women who are fighting in my name around the world. Whatever the reason, be it right or wrong, you’re risking your life for my freedom. Thank you to the people who are protecting us, the REAL people who are protecting us, not the politicians who are saying they are. And I’m not just talking about Dubya, ALL you politicians who take money & perks from lobbyists, who voted to raise your own pay, who sell yourself to the highest bidder to “speak” at conventions, this thank you is not for you. If you truly had the good of this country in your heart, you would take that money and donate it to the single mom who went into the Army so that her child had a chance at a future. You would give it to the immigrant that picked up an AK47 in your name so that you can continue to exploit your constituents for your own person gain, and who continues to fight for you despite the fact that you’re trying to have his relatives deported. If you loved your country, you would LISTEN to the people who voted for you, ALL the people, not just the ones with a big checkbook. If you loved your country, you would greet these soldiers with open arms and offer them help in any way that they need it…
Because if it weren’t for them, you wouldn’t have a job.
