Post by: Teresa on November 13, 2006, 12:28:03 PM
 
It is  the VETERAN, not the preacher,
Who has  given us freedom of religion.

It is the he VETERAN, not the reporter,
Who has given  us freedom of the press.

It is the VETERAN, not the poet,
Who has given us  freedom of speech.

It is the VETERAN, not the campus organizer
Who  has given us freedom to assemble.

It is the VETERAN, not the lawyer,
Who has given  us the right to a fair trial.

It is t he VETERAN, not the politician,
Who has  given us the right to vote.

It is the VETERAN  ,
Who salutes the  Flag.

How true.  In any crowd where the flag is displayed, you will see it is the military type person who is saluting the flag, be it man or woman, old or young.
