I am passing his good letter along to you with some good old fashioned Cedar City fireworks.
Happy 4th of July,

Democrats serve beside Republicans
This current administration has squandered opportunities, notably 9/11, to bring this country together. However, because of its actions and policies the opposite has happened. This country is divided.

According to many in the GOP, it is "us against them."This is evident in the recent letter to the editor by a retired Navy serviceman. He indicates that all Democrats are only pretending to be patriotic.
We are fortunate in this country to have different views on many things, politics being one of them. However, I found his letter to be personally offensive to me. I am an active Democrat.
I have been involved in the process for about four years and served as a delegate to the state of Utah Democratic Party. I can tell you from personal experience that Democrats love this country. We care about the direction of this country and we care about the men and women who defend our way of life overseas.

The difference is we have different ideas then the GOP. This does not make us less patriotic. Guess what? We have Democrats in our Armed Forces. They fight right along side Republicans ... Love of country crosses all political lines, race and social class.

Great post Emily
Happy 4th, Rob. :-) Oh, I guess now it's the 5th.
Emily and Rob,
why are you up so late?
just kidding, I'm the old guy that goes to bed early.
Great post!
I have never understood how someone can claim that another is not patriotic. But, I guess there are people who think that by putting on a "Support the Troops" ribbon magnets on their car qualifies them to be patriotic. I always thought that any type of service to your country was being patriotic and patriotism knows no political party.
Richard,
Cause I'm the worst night owl. ;-)
Creative juices get flowing in the middle of the night, I think.
Happy summer!
