Dear Ladies and Glentleman:
I take a great deal of pride in being called a Veteran. Well, after years of defending the freedoms of Americans, and having them use their freedom to watch crap TV shows, instead of participating in the functionality of their nation. Now people are speaking out. They’re exercising their rights and their liberties. They’re not sitting on the couch; they’re networking and organizing. They’re taking advantage of the liberties others have died to help preserve.
I have said before: voting is the olympics of your citizenry. It you don’t exercise all of your rights you will never have the representation that you deserve. You don’t go to the olympics for an event you haven’t trained for and expect to leave with a gold-medal.
I translate every town hall video into a “thank you.” Let me show you what these seem to look like:

I think as an American citizen all of us are blessed with the power of free speech. I felt very proud to have marched in the 2004 NYC against the prior administration and its handling in my opinion of everything. I have no issues with people who feel different and voice them. I think this is a great site if it shows that there are some who feel they disagree with how the country is being run and some, like me who feel its being handled beautifully right now under the current administration. However if its just a site for those who are against the current administration, then its just a conservative site and should openly state it.
