“Love of Country”


There is one thing I know for sure besides my undying love of my Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, closely followed by my love of my Wife and Son and the rest of my living family.
Is my undying passionate love of my country, the United States of America.

You see, after serving 6 years in the US Army I have developed an extremely passionate love for my country. I would at a moments notice put the uniform of a US Army soldier back on, and die, if necessary for this president and country at a moments notice, if not sooner.

Of all the things I have had to accomplish as a Father to my Son, I find it the most difficult to teach to my son and his close friends (especially since the Iraq wars) is the love of country. A mans basic need to defend this country. If you read history and its lessons, the one thing that in my estimation has failed us is the failure to get that across to our sons and daughters. The best example being WWII That generation of Americans was square behind the president and the country. There was no stopping us. We all no the rest.


But, today 2007 we find ourselves after the 70’s and 80’s and 90’s struggling to get out the message of ‘Love of Country’ Conservatives at least the conservatives I remember never have a problem understanding this basic message. Without it this country will fall.

It sickens me when I hear politicians making ridiculous statements that maybe a terrorist is listening to and telling his family; sees these Americans are of the devil. I hope that these statements are just stupid mistakes and not calculated to aid the enemy, In that case there needs to be treason charges closely followed by a firing squad. (That will shut em up)

Finally, I hope and pray that one day this message spreads back into the American fabric.

May God Bless America.

Sincerely,

A Proud US Army Veteran, and Conservative.
