America needs to see the tax returns of public servants who became millionaires while being public servants"

Veterans Day

 

A Veteran-whether active duty,  retired, served one hitch, or reservist is someone who, at one point in  his or her life, wrote a blank check made payable to "The Government of the United States of  America", for an amount of "up to and including their life." That is honor, and there are too many people in this country who no longer understand it.

In November 1919, President Wilson proclaimed November 11 as the first commemoration of Armistice Day with the following words: "To us in America, the reflections of Armistice Day will be filled with solemn pride in the heroism of those who died in the country’s service and with gratitude for the victory, both because of the thing from which it has freed us and because of the opportunity it has given America to show her sympathy with peace and justice in the councils of the nations…"

The original concept for the celebration was for a day observed with parades and public meetings and a brief suspension of business beginning at 11:00 a.m. On June 1, 1954, Armistice Day was changed to Veterans Day.

November 11 of each year should be commemorated with thanksgiving and prayer and exercises designed to perpetuate peace through good will and mutual understanding between nations.

MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN

Some say that America has always been great. I disagree.

When I returned from Vietnam, I was spit on, just because I served our nation with honor and others gave their lives so that the spitters had the freedom to do so. Not a great time in America.

America gave up on a mission to fight communism in Southeast Asia. Many gave their lives and others their limbs, and still others their dignity. America gave in just when the North Vietnamese were about to surrender. Not a great time in America.

Discipline of our children in both the schools and at home was removed from a Great America. Students fought teachers and administrators, parents did nothing. Parents refused to accept responsibility and everyone else was to blame. Not a great time in America.

A majority of our society silently sat and allowed Prayer to be removed from schools and other public places. Our value system was downgraded, crime increased, divorce rate increased, neighbors were ignored, and no one held each other accountable. Not a great time in America.

It became not politically correct to say the words Christian or Christmas. Not a great time in America.

That grand old flag. What a beauty she is when she waves. Animals were allowed to set her on fire in the middle of American streets and went unpunished. The Pledge of Allegiance was stripped from our schools. Not a great time in America.

The use of harmful, illegal Drugs became the norm, addiction became rampant and people died from over doses. Drug cartels were not challenged and flourished. Not a great time in America.

Terrorism hit American soil. Thousands died in just one day. Not a great time in America.

Kids received trophies for participating, but not winning. Competition became a dirty word. Not a great time in America

Our universities were filled with both foreign faculty and students who came to America to study and destroy our American way of life. Not a great time in America.

Corruption within leadership of many US branches of Government. Judges making legislative decisions, legislative branch being bought by lobbyists, and executive branch failing America within the FBI and Department of Justice. Not a great time in America.

US jobs were transferred outside of America’s economy causing unemployment to rise and more and more US citizens became dependent on the US Government. Not a great time in America.

A US President went around the globe apologizing for America’s actions and deeds. Not a great time in America.

Attempts to remove America’s history went unchallenged when Historical statues were removed from public places, just because a few were offended. Not a great time in America.

So, yes, it is very appropriate to say, MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN.

Fear is a reaction. Courage is a decision
