Pissed
My anger & disgust with our government is at a record high. I read an article today about a 10 year old boy who lost his Dad in the Chinook crash ( he was the pilot). It really drove home the point that average American families are working hard & making sacrifices (sometimes the ultimate sacrifice), and our elected officials (ALL of them) are too caught up in pissing contests to care about our welfare. They have lost sight of why they are there, and who they are working for. More importantly they have forgotten that even though we have two parties we expect them to compromise and do what is best for Americans & not their own party agenda. I guess it is easy to forget these things when you have enough food to eat, you get to go home to your family every night, and the American people provide you with a pretty good retirement plan.

Imagine your loved one potentially in "Harm's Way." Everyday Barno goes off to the Army I think about the things you are agonizing over. Only I add the slim possibility Barno could be there, "Again."
We the people need to be in the streets reminding those that think themselves royalty, we are their purpose.
Southeast Asia was rife with this kind of forgotten soldier story. Ask Ron or Ernie, nothing has changed, we are still the serf population. It is time for us to stand together and demand respect.
But hey, you guys got old "King" Rick tellin' the world he's the answer. Sorry, couldn't resist.
Love you kid.
