[« And wouldn't this be the most wonderful sight?] ["Last throes..." »]
07/04/2005: Thought for the Day:
The president invoked July 4 [in his 6/28 Ft. Bragg address] as well as Sept. 11. He called it a day to celebrate freedom and offer thanks to the troops by flying a flag, writing a letter, helping a military family.
I will fly my flag this Fourth of July, as always, on a small island in Maine. I will fly it for the men and women in harm's way. But I'll fly it as well for the father who protests the military recruiters at his child's high school and the 19-year-old widow who tells ''Good Morning America," ''I just feel enough is enough."
The silenced majority of Americans who believe we were misled into war have no reason to be tongue-tied by a yellow ribbon.
