Memorial Day and the 4th are so close together, I find it hard to separate them. I am so grateful that I live in this great country. There are many that have made the ultimate sacrifice so that we might enjoy these times. My thoughts are always with those that gave everything. Thank you and Happy Birthday America.

Here in Canada we just publicly apologized and gave 10.5 million dollars to Omar Khadr, a jihadist terrorist who killed an American soldier in Afghanistan and whos family talks about how great it was that he killed him.

Liberalism has made me ashamed to be Canadian...don't let it happen to you guys

A very sobering photograph of the final resting place of so many that served our great nation. I've never seen a national cemetery that didn't bring out an overwhelming sense of sadness, combined with pride, in our military who defended us and our way of life. My father lies in such a national cemetery, a veteran of WW2, Korea and Viet Nam. God bless all that served!
