Our Support
NOTE: We post articles because we think they are of interest. Doing so doesn’t mean that I necessarily agree with every—or any—opinion in the posted article. And although we often post about disagreements, it is VERY important to understand that we agree and proudly support, more of the ideas of U.S. Leaders than disagreed. (it is just part of democracy, it gives balance and is vital)
Word of the year:
Freedom isn't free, just ask any soldier.
From me to you - Thanks!
No I don't support the idea of never ending war in our world.
But I do have to support the people who have given me the right and freedom to complain about it.
Please support our veterans by doing anything you can to boost theirs spirits and hope.
I write a lot of this before I have my coffee.
Getting up every morning before 4am... the only thing that looks good is coffee.
I do not think President Obama regularly drank coffee we he was in senate,
but he may want to try it on his new job.
WARNING: coffee is harmful to the environment, small woodland animals and people who like to maintain status quo
