Take a moment to honor the men and women who died in defense of the United States of America. From the Revolutionary War to the War in Iraq, they made the ultimate sacrifice. Freedom isn’t free. It must be fought for and defended.
The enemies of freedom and civility will never stop envying and hating this country, nor will they cease trying to destroy it. But as long as we’re willing to protect ourselves against whatever threatens our freedom and sovereignty, the deaths of the fallen will not have been in vain.
Threats against our country don’t just come from abroad. We’ve got homegrown enemies in our midst, enemies who call themselves Americans. (Remember when traitors were executed?)
If you’re spending this day close to home and you’re compelled to watch TV and you have cable, tune in to the The History Channel.
