THE MARINE "
This is a poem being sent from a Marine to his Dad. For those who
take the time to read it, you'll see a letter from him to his dad at
the bottom. It makes you truly thankful for not only the Marines,
but ALL of our troops.
THE MARINE
We all came together, Both young and old To fight for our freedom,
To stand and be bold.
In the midst of all evil, We stand our ground, And we protect our
country From all terror around.
Peace and not war, Is what some people say. But I'll give my life,
So you can live the American way
I give you the right To talk of your peace. To stand in your groups,
and protest in our streets.
But still I fight on, I don't fuss, I don't whine. I'm just one of
the people! Who is doing your time.
I'm harder than nails, Stronger than any machine. I'm the immortal
soldier, I'm a U.S. MARINE!
So stand in my shoes, And leave from your home. Fight for the people
who hate you, With the protests they've shown. Fight for the
stranger, Fight for the young. So they all may have, The greatest
freedom you've won
Fight for the sick, Fight for the poor Fight for the cripple, Who
lives next door.
But when your time comes, Do what I've done. For if you stand up for
freedom, You'll stand when the fight's done

Hey Dad,
Do me a favor and label this 'The Marine' and send it to everybody
on your email list.. Even leave this letter in it. I want this
rolling all over the US ; I want every home reading it. Every eye
seeing it. And every heart to feel it. So can you please send this
for me? I would but my email time isn't that long and I don 't have
much time anyway. You know what Dad? I wondered what it would be
like to truly understand what JFK said in His inaugural speech.
'When the time comes to lay down my life for my country, I do not
cower from this responsibility. I welcome it.' Well, now I know. And
I do. Dad, I welcome the opportunity to do what I do. Even though I
have left behind a beautiful wife, and I will miss the birth of our
first born child, I would do it 70 times over to fight for the place
that God has made for my home.
I love you all and I miss you very much. I wish I could be there
when Sandi has our baby, but tell her that I love her, and Lord
willing, I will be coming home soon. Give Mom a great big hug from
me and give one to yourself too.
Aaron

This guy had the guts to put this on the internet--God Bless

YES, I'M A BAD AMERICAN
I Am the Liberal-Progressive's Worst Nightmare
I am an American.
I am a Master Mason and believe in God.
I ride Harley Davidson Motorcycles, and believe in American products.
I believe the money I make belongs to me and my family, not
some liberal governmental functionary, Democratic or Republican!
I'm in touch with my feelings and I like it that way!
I think owning a gun doesn't make you a killer; it makes you
a smart American.
I think being a minority does not make you noble or
victimized, and does not entitle you to anything. Get over it!
I believe that if you are selling me a Big Mac, you should
do it in English.
I believe everyone has a right to pray to God when and where
they want to.
My heroes are John Wayne, Babe Ruth, Roy Rogers, and Willie
G. Davidson, who makes the awesome Harley Davidson Motorcycles.
I don't hate the rich.. I don't pity the poor.
I know wrestling is fake and I don't waste my time watching
or arguing about it.
I've never owned a slave, or was a slave. I haven't burned
any witches or been persecuted by the Turks, and neither have you!
So, shut up already.
I believe if you don't like the way things are here, go
back to where you came from and change your own country!
This is AMERICA ..We like it the way it is!
If you were born here and don't like it you are free to move
to any Socialist country that will have you.
I want to know which church is it, exactly, where the
Reverend Jesse Jackson preaches, where he gets his money, and why he
is always part of the problem and not the solution.
Can I get an AMEN on that one?
I also think the cops have the right to pull you over if
you're breaking the law, regardless of what color you are.
And, no, I don't mind having my face shown on my driver's
license.
I think it's good..... And I'm proud that 'God' is written
on my money.
I think if you are too stupid to know how a ballot works, I don't
want you deciding who should be running the most powerful nation in
the world for the next four years.
I dislike those people standing in the intersections trying
to sell me stuff or trying to guilt me into making 'donations' to
their cause.......Get a Job and do your part!
I believe that it doesn't take a village to raise a child,
it takes two parents..
I believe 'illegal' is illegal no matter what the lawyers think.
I believe the American flag should be the only one allowed
in AMERICA !
If this makes me a BAD American, then yes, I'm a BAD American..
If you are a BAD American too, please forward this to
everyone you know...
We want our country back!
WE NEED GOD BACK
IN OUR COUNTRY!!

ONLY BECAUSE OF THE BRAVE! "
