It’s interesting that those to whom this country has given the least are usually the ones who comport themselves with the most honor and dignity. The mechanic, the farmer, the fireman, the steelworker and truck driver and their wives and families. They know that their sons are fighting for much more than is portrayed by the press. If their son dies they know it was with honor and for a cause that was worth the risk. That someday our country will look back at the sacrifices being made today in the same way we look at the sacrifices made in Europe and the Pacific during WWII.


We all like to think of ourselves as rugged individualists. But when push comes to shove most of us are sheep who do what we are told. Worst of all, a lot of us become unpaid agents of whoever is controlling the agenda by enforcing the current dogma on the few rugged individualists who actually exist.
