After they have done all for us let us stand and be counted for them. In the words of Lincoln:
"let us strive on to finish the work we are in, to bind up the nation's wounds, to care for him who shall have borne the battle and for his widow and his orphan."
It is a national disgrace to put men and women in harms way and not be willing to provide them the best of everything we have when they come home.
The money is there. Our priorities are wrong. Let's stop the drain of tax money out of this country to buy friends that don't show up when we go to war.
Everyone wants to be first in line when it comes to tax dollars.We need to stop and realize therewould not be a line at all but for those that stand in defense of this great nation.
I am asking from my heart that you make sure that this administration keeps the promise made to our Veterans of this country prior to the election. I took those promises to heart.I am counting on you all up thereto do the right thing.
Sincerely,
(clicking out of here and putting the above in an e-mail, thanks for the heads up Gimpy)
