Today is Veteran's Day.
Every freedom you enjoy carries with it the weight of millions of lives risked and sacrified to preserve that freedom. Maybe you disapprove of the Iraq war, as I do, or maybe you believe wholeheartedly in that cause. Maybe you've never served in the military or maybe you are a veteran of multiple combat actions. Maybe your mother or father, or son or daughter, or brother or sister is wearing a uniform right now. Maybe you have a friend or family member who made the ultimate sacrifice in defense of the United States. Whereever you may fall in the political or philosophical spectrum, your right to express those opinions and views is, and has been, defended by our men and women in uniform.
God bless those who serve.
"I may disapprove of what you say, but I will defend to the death your right to say it." --Voltaire
