not a political party not a situation nothing like that.
What do you as a person living in this country owe it?
remember the great words of kennedy
" ask not what your country can do for you , but what you can do for your country "

I gave 4 years of my life. I still dont feel its enough. The best thing that I can do is teach my son what America is all about and why so many fought and died for what we have today. Hopefully he will pass it along after Im gone.

How odd coming from a person who opposes something most people think will make things better for most Americans.
This is you correct?

Opposing something only because it might threaten your income personally?
Is that any different from your so-called libs expecting something from the government?
You are expecting it to not make things better for the majority, because of a possibility that it may cause problems for you.
Imagine that....
A con that believes it is the fault of those who are poor for making poor decisions and being poor, but feels everyone else should suffer just so their own decision doesn't turn out to be a bad one. hmmmmmm

Loyalty, defense of the Constitution against all enemies foreign and domestic, a Gawdawful lot of wasted tax dollars, protection from illegal aliens, complete respect for those who paid with blood and lives to keep America free.
And to teach my kids to do the same.

I serve my country every day.
The only thing I "owe" is 8 hours work for 8 hours pay. Unfortunately, I give 9 or 10 hours a day, and the pay is lousy.
Don't fall into the trap that government workers are slackers...with more and more money beng diverted to Iraq, we have to do more with less!
EDIT: For those who give me a thumbs down, just try doing my job for a week. Other than the fact that you need a master's degree to even walk in the door, need specialized experience in the law and judicial proceedings, and actually have to WORK for 9 - 10 hours a day, you probably couldn't handle it. Oh, and by the way, if I worked in the private sector, I'd be making twice what I do now, so take my job for 50% less what you make.
Any takers??

I owe my country my undying loyalty and my life, should it require it. I owe her the most informed vote I can place in every election. I have freedom, a good life, and much to be thankful for due to being born and raised in this country. I was taught to respect her and protect her, I came to love her all on my own.

To be a good citizen, vote, stay off of government assistance, teach your kids to be proud to be American. But most of all be THANKFUL. We live in the best country in the world and its amazing that some people dont realize that.
