Watchman's Soap Box

We cherish too, the Poppy red
That grows on fields where valor led,
It seems to signal to the skies
That blood of heroes never dies.

There are very few things that really piss me off. But today I am pissed. Today the Commander in Chief of the greatest country in the world is again proving how ignorant he is.

On a day that we pay respect to the men and women who have given their lives for this great country, he treats it as just another 3 day weekend.

No need to honor them, Uncle Joe can handle it.

It is another slap in the face to those that have given there all to make it possible for him to be the CIC. But what are you going to do? Can’t make him like his country, or the military.

So I will pay the proper respect this day. And I will leave you with this:





GOD BLESS

Kennedy School of Government for Harvard University. Battles showed several paintings, sketches and portraits for residents and tourists to see the artwork of a combat artist, in Cambridge, Mass., to help tell the Marine Corps story during Marine Week.

These brave men and women sacrifice so much in their lives so that others may enjoy the freedoms we get to enjoy everyday. For that, I am proud to call them Hero.
We Should Not Only Mourn These Men And Women Who Died, We Should Also Thank God That Such People Lived
