Subject: Fwd: KEEP IT CIRCULATING BY JULY 4TH




Let's get this circulating by July 4th
     

   

   

     





     

          I HOPE THERE ISN'T ANYONE ON MY E-MAIL LIST
                                       THAT WON'T KEEP THIS  GOING.                                                      


          

Happy  4th of 

July!....  

.....let' s get this started now, 

So it will  be out there on the  fourth!!!! 



   



I  PLEDGE ALLEGIANCE TO THE  FLAG,
OF  THE 

UNITED STATES OF AMERICA  ,





AND  TO THE REPUBLIC, FOR 

WHICH IT  STANDS,





ONE  NATION UNDER  GOD,





INDIVISIBLE,  WITH 

LIBERTY AND JUSTICE FOR ALL! 



KEEP  IT LIT!




KEEP IT  LIT!  



For  

All of our other military personnel, wherever they may be  

Please  

Support all of the troops defending our  Country. 






And  God Bless our Military who are protecting  our Country for our Freedom.

Thanks  

To them, and their sacrifices we can  celebrate the 4th of July  








We must never  forget who 

Gets the credit for the freedoms  we have, of which we should be Eternally  grateful.. 








I watched the flag  

Pass by one day, 

It fluttered in the  breeze. 








A young Marine  

Saluted it, 

And then he stood at ease..  





I looked at 

Him in uniform  

So young, so tall, so proud, 

With hair  cut square 

And eyes alert 

He'd stand out  in any crowd. 










 





I thought how many men  

Like him 

Had fallen through the years.  

How many died on foreign 

Soil 

How  many mothers' tears?


How many pilots' planes  

Shot down? 

How many died at sea 

How  many foxholes were soldiers' 

Graves ?  

No, freedom isn't free 



I heard the  sound of Taps 

One night, 

When everything  was still, 

I listened to the bugler  Play 

And felt a sudden chill.  



I wondered just how many times  

That Taps had meant 'Amen,' 




When a flag had draped a Coffin.
Of a brother or a friend.
 


I thought of all  the Children,
Of the mothers and the  wives,
Of fathers, Sons and Husbands
With interrupted lives.  

I
Thought about a  graveyard
At  the bottom of the sea 



Of unmarked graves in   Arlington .
No, freedom isn't free.  


Enjoy  Your Freedom
And God Bless Our  Troops

When  You receive this, please stop for a moment
And
Say  a
Prayer for our servicemen.  
Of  all the gifts you could give
A US Soldier,  Prayer is the very best
One.

Military porn. Figures.

Just a bunch of messages strung together.

Support all of the troops defending our Country.

And God Bless our Military who are protecting our Country for our Freedom.

We have no troops defending our country, as our country isn't under attack and hasn't been for more than 200 years.

Similarly, our freedoms aren't under attack.

You'd think others might have noticed this...

Gotta post again.

Of all the gifts you could give A US Soldier, Prayer is the very best One.

Really? Better than decent pay or adequate healthcare after they get out of the service?

No wonder the VA is underfunded. RWD is OK with paying for the war, but he apparently believes God will take care of the vets.

All the enlisted personnel & Vets are gonna get from RWD are "thoughts & prayers" and meaningless sentimental crap like this, plus ye olde "Pass it on!!!1!"

RWD really doesn't give a shit what happens to the military or vets, as RWD has made it obvious that he's not paying for those lousy lazy freeloaders.

Talk's cheap.

Technically it's only been 71 years since the last time we were actually attacked (Pearl Harbor) but the fact that RWDs keep putting this out is somewhat humorous. I have respect for the military and those that offer their service but unlike RWD I think they should be better taken care of after the fact. I think the immortal George Carlin said it best.

@Max

Pearl Harbor was in a U.S. territory, rather than part of the country proper. Besides, the point of the attack was to hit a naval base, rather than to attack the country.

We have bases in Japan and elsewhere, but I doubt we'd regard an attack on one of our foreign bases in the same way as we'd regard an attack on Chicago. We certainly didn't react after the Beirut bombing as though the country had been attacked.

I wonder if Republicans would all rush to enlist if some foreign power were to attack the Northern Mariana Islands or Guam today...

Agent86 said...

@Charlie,

Fair point. And as to whether Republicans would rush to enlist if the Marianas or Guam were attacked, I think we all know the answer to that one. BUT, you can bet your ass they'd be willing to send others to take care of it.

Boy RWD really dug around to find every single sentimental gif and phrase to just how patriotic-y he is. Support the troops in a meaninful way? Not so much.

IOW, yet another day ending in "y" for RWD.
