Perfect answer

I try to come up with original things to say in this Blog, but most of the time the words of others say what I am thinking far more eloquently. This article at Mudville discusses retention in the Guard, and in it 1Lt Bruce Bishop states his reasons for staying in:

..."because as I look around at the state of this nation and see all of the weak little pampered candy-asses that are whining about this or protesting that, I'd be afraid to leave the fate of this nation entirely up to them."

Thanks LT! I hope you don’t mind if I use this as my stock answer from now on when asked why I keep doing this. Priceless.

You and all our troups fight America's battle for the pursuit of freedom..

I shall NEVER forget...I shall ALWAYS be grateful.

"Thank You" just doesn't seem enough.

The battle being fought on the homefront, led by the whining pampered candy asses rages on; and Lt.Bishop is right "we cannot leave this nation entirely up to them!"

What ever happened to the inner strength, resiliance and determination that those who forged this nation possessed?
