While thinking of our Armed Forces

And THANK YOU, all you who serve...

Let's remember why we call them to serve.

In the Preamble to the Constitution we find these words:

We the People of the United States, in Order to form a more perfect Union, establish Justice, insure domestic Tranquility, provide for the common defence, promote the general Welfare, and secure the Blessings of Liberty to ourselves and our Posterity, do ordain and establish this Constitution for the United States of America.


[I figure I can't repeat them often enough.]

Not that Iraq's oil reserves have anything to do with our invasion and occupation....

Just sayin'.

SUPPORT OUR TROOPS! Bring them home. Don't send them on vague missions without concrete goals. Don't send them into battle except as a last resort. Don't send them inadequately armed and protected. Don't send them illegally. Don't take away their moral defense by promoting torture.

Bring them home. Be grateful for them. Take care of their health needs. Help them reintegrate with civilian society. AND GET THEM A NEW COMMANDER IN CHIEF. Stop troop abuse now. Stop the lies. Stop Cheney and Bush.
