Let's take a moment at the end of 2009 to THANK OUR SERVICE MEN and WOMEN who are IN FOREIGN COUNTRIES taking care of business while we celebrate our holidays, fairly sure that we will not be attacked by another nation on our soil. I know - 9/11 - terrorists. Terrorism is a reality. Many Americans feel we have lost much of our Privacy and our Rights are in danger because we are suspicious of the Patriot Act. We are not used to High Security. We don't want to get used to going through metal detectors and having to show ID's...
Still, no matter how pacifist you may be personally, that pacifism can end in martyrdom if we have a weak military. Whatever the Truth of 9/11, Service Men and Women make a sacrifice and take a great personal risk to defend us and keep that aspect of our nation strong.
THE NEWS IS NOT PROPERLY COVERING MILITARY or GOVERNMENTAL ISSUES.
THIS IS OUR OWN FAULT. We have decided that the soft news of entertainment, sports and celebrity media, is more important than following local and national politics.
You know what you can do proud and patriotic Americans!
You can call your local stations and tell them we want to know more about what's going on in the world. You can buy magazines and newspapers that have reportage of important issues and continue to spend your money in ways that show your beliefs are upheld. You can VOTE having EDUCATED YOURSELF for candidates that represent you!
