Something Personal

May 21st, 2007 by Baldy

I was sent a email this afternoon that struck a pesonal cord with me. I remember what it was for a soldier in the Vietnam War to return back to the world and the treatment that was received by many of them returning. Don’t get me wrong I was not in favor of that war or the one that we are involved in today. However I do not desire to take that thought out on the men and and women that are over seas fighting for our freedom and rights. They are just doing their job and didn’t decide on their own to go and invade, that decision was made for them and they have to obey the command. So do all of the soldiers a favor and take a couple of minutes out of your busy life and click on the link below and watch this it is really well done.

The following is the hottest thing on the internet and on Fox News today.  Lizzie Palmer who put this YouTube program together is 15 years old.  There have been over 3,000,000 hits as of this morning.  In case you missed it, here it is.

Must see

And thanks Raven for the link.
