Somethin' Worth Fightin' For: Have you hugged a vet today?
It's great to have a day off, but does anybody still remember why Veterans Day exists? We may be in the midst of an unpopular war, but that should not in any way diminish the value of those who have served this country with honor and distinction.
Recently, the much of the country was in the mood to drive out the Republicans and bring on the Dems, in droves. But no change in leadership would be possible by such a shift in public sentiment in a country bereft of freedom, liberty and free speech. We have the vets to thank for protecting our liberties. I wrote this song in their honor. Daniel Sisco sings it in their honor. Thanks to the vets, I am free, as a songwriter, to write whatever I want to write. You are free to sing along too, or not, because of these same vets. If you choose not to, then please show your gratitude in whatever manner fits your style. Please don't ever forget our vets, or freedom may some day forget you. 2 comments from 2 users

Today at 2:30 the Porterville Democrat Club is dedicating a tree at Porterville's Veteran's Park to SSG Michael Mitchell who was killed in action on 4-04-04 in Iraq. Veteran's Day and Memorial Day are very emotional for me. I don't personally know of anybody who is in combat, has been in combat, etc. But it doesn't stop me from appreciating everything they sacrifice for us. We go to the Veteran's Day parade every year and I tear up every time. Tears of pride, I think. I haven't quite figured them out. But I don't stop them. I let them flow! Thanks for the reminder and the song! posted by
