Thank you Vets

No I do not mean veterinarians but I mean veterans who’ve served defending this great nation from all enemies foreign and domestic.  Last week we found out how close our enemies were and many of our service members paid the ultimate price defending everyone.  Thank you for your service to this great nation.

20th Anniversary of the Wall

Today was the 20th anniversary of the Berlin Wall coming down.  There was a 1,000 foam tiles that was toppled down like a row of dominos.  Our president decided that he didn’t need to attend the anniversary of the West’s greatest achievement since defeating Nazi Germany in 1945.  One thing that irked me,well make it two things.  First of all the German chancellor praised Mikhail Gorbachev for his “role” in bringing down the “Anti-Fascist Protection Wall” which he really had nothing to do with.  Then there was no mention at all of Ronald Reagan, the man who told Gorbachev to “tear down this wall!”  Then again, we live in a state of being where there are no heroes, were everyone is the same, were school children don’t see grades anymore or any other from of criticism for it might “hurt” their feelings.
