Serving in the military, learning the history of my unit, the men who were heros, and those who died left an impression.

To those who haven't served, you wouldn't have a clue.

There is little doubt that the world in general is more liberal than it was 50 years ago and beyond. Conservatives are simply roadblocks on the path to an ever more progressive and liberal world. What a sad existence.
