Stand proud America, for we are a great nation.




DOES WASHINGTON CARE ?



He looks in the garbage cans outside the diner hoping to find something to eat. He does. Now he is tired and needs a place to sleep, so he finds a box and crawls inside to sleep. He's cold.



He wakes up in the morning and hears voices. He asks himself if there is a parade, and looks to see.

He starts to cry for what he see's is a group of kids burning the flag in protest of our government. He tries to stop them.But they kick him. They call him names. They don't understand it was because of that soldier and all the others that have fought for their country that gave these kids their rights under the flag that they're burning.




AT WHAT COST IS FREEDOM OF EXPRESSION? ONE OF OUR MANY RIGHTS WE HAVE TODAY. A SOLDIERS LIFE, A POW OR AN MIA STILL WAITING TO COME HOME TO AMERICA. THATS THE COST. THAT IS PAID FOR OUR RIGHTS UNDER THE FLAG. A SOLDIERS LIFE.


The same flag that has carried us through every war, the same flag that flies over every state captial, and the same flag that covers a soldiers coffin.




Only in America......can a homeless combat veteran live in a cardboard box and a draft dodger live in the White House.

This doesn't have to happen
He serviced his country and helped give us FREEDOM
Yet we turn our back on him WHY?
