This weekend let's try not to be Republican or Democrats...We have seen devastation over the past months that many of the younger bunch in our group has never seen in their lifetime. Before we criticize the machine at work in this country, look in the mirror. Ask yourself what you are doing to make things better. Laugh a little at the things you can't control and pity those who also have things out of their reach. We see & hear too many people putting down America nowadays that it is easy to fall into a cynical trap be it either for or against the way our world seems to spin. Look at the flag on Monday and with sincerity say, "God bless America"...I leave you with a quote from Nelson Muntz the neighborhood bully of the Simpsons who so astutely conveyed his thoughts in an essay "Patriots of Tomorrow"
"So burn the flag if you must, but before you do, you better burn a few other things! You better burn your shirt and your pants! Be sure to burn your TV & car! Oh yes, and don't forget to burn your house because none of those things could exist without six white stripes, seven red stripes, and a hell of a lot of stars!"

Hey nutz, i'm not putting down America, just like my criticism of our atrocious border situation, i'm saying we are not getting the job done. We all agree on the border, are u hating on the U.S. because you're not happy with that situation? I'm dissappointed with the leadership.
Enjoy the holiday weekend fellas! Be well!
