I spent most of the day in DC for the Rolling Thunder/Gathering of Eagles event. There were tens of thousands of patriots there showing their support for our troops. I got to meet up with Kit Jarrell again and met some new folks who were really nice. I took some pictures and hope to get a few up later but Skye took a picture of me and Kit that you can see here.
I have been to two events this year and it always humbles me to be around so many men and women who have given a great deal to this country even when this country has often not been so generous. These same folks have an undying love for this country and for each other and would do anything to keep it free. I always enjoy the company of people like this and wonder why it is that the people in our Congress work so hard to undo all the good that our veterans have done for this country.
One thing missing from DC were the moonbats. Usually one can see them prancing around with their communist and anti-American signs. Today the place was filled with those who made DC possible, not those who would tear it down.
God bless our troops, our veterans and their families, those who support them, and God bless the USA.
