Went to the Ronald Reagan Library on Veteran's Day.
While there, there were some folks taking contributions to support For the Troops.
President Obama has asked the military and their families for more sacrifice with his plan to send 30,000 additional soldiers to Afghanistan. He and they need our support in for this difficult, dangerous and important mission.
Of course, many tens of thousands are already there and will have spent Thanksgiving and will spend Christmas away from home. Thus, I felt the desire to support For the Troops.
There are many other like-minded groups and I hope you will consider giving what you can.
I am also supporting the Ronald Reagan Foundation because I cast my first presidential vote for Reagan in 1984 and for many today what he did is ancient history.
2009 marked the 20th Anniversary of the Fall of the Berlin Wall.
None will ever forget that JFK stood there in solidarity with the people of Berlin.
RR stood there in solidarity with the people of Berlin too and saw that the wall was cracking and with his strong leadership in deeds and simple words helped push it down.
Thank you JFK and RR for leadership and THANK YOU to all the US armed forces who have fought for and defended freedom through the decades.
