Memorial Day is the day that we honor our military veterans who laid down their lives for our nation. [View all]

They are not “sucker and losers” like one said by a draft dodger who avoided the military by lying his way out of fighting for the very same freedoms he has today.

Thus, these men and women never wavered from harm. They left families behind to protect their own country without hesitation or fear.

I salute each of them for their courage, sacrifice and dedication to serve as the bravest people that ever existed. Unfortunately they paid the ultimate price for our freedom and that mustn’t be forgotten.

These people who fought to protect our freedom are the most important part of what this country is. Unlike the one person whom we know, they are not cowards like him.

So, I will not mention that coward’s name today and will honor those military personnel that live on in our memories.
