Ah....More reason to be proud.

IMHO, the only people who have the right to be proud of this country are those who actually serve it in the armed forces.

That does not include me and that does not include millions of others.

My dad served. He has the right to be proud. I do not because I, like most other Americans, have done NOTHING to make me proud to be an American.

Am I thankful for those who have and do serve? Damn straight. I may not agree with what the U.S. Government decides to do all the time but I sure as hell can't blame the troops that have been put in various positions. They signed up to defend freedom. Props to them.
