** Images For Use By Upgraded+ Only ** From the President's speech at Fort Hood's Memorial to those killed: We come together filled with sorrow for the thirteen Americans that we have lost; with gratitude for the lives that they led; and with a determination to honor them through the work we carry on. This is a time of war. And yet these Americans did not die on a foreign field of battle. They were killed here, on American soil, in the heart of this great American community. It is this fact that makes the tragedy even more painful and even more incomprehensible. For those families who have lost a loved one, no words can fill the void that has been left. We knew these men and women as soldiers and caregivers. You knew them as mothers and fathers; sons and daughters; sisters and brothers. But here is what you must also know: your loved ones endure through the life of our nation. Their memory will be honored in the places they lived and by the people they touched. Their life's work is our security, and the freedom that we too often take for granted. Every evening that the sun sets on a tranquil town; every dawn that a flag is unfurled; every moment that an American enjoys life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness – that is their legacy. ******************************************************************************************************************************************** "The dogmas of the quiet past, are inadequate to the stormy present. The occasion is piled high with difficulty, and we must rise -- with the occasion. As our case is new, so we must think anew, and act anew. We must disentrall ourselves, and then we shall save our country." Abraham Lincoln --December 1, 1862 ******************************************************************************************************************************************** “The strength of the Constitution lies entirely in the determination of each citizen to defend it. Only if every single citizen feels duty bound to do his share in this defense are the constitutional rights secure.” Albert Einstein ********************************************************************************************************************************************* We sleep safely in our beds because rough men stand ready in the night to visit violence on those who would harm us. - George Orwell ********************************************************************************************************************************************* Whoever said the pen is mightier than the sword obviously never encountered automatic weapons. - General MacArthur ********************************************************************************************************************************************* No matter your stance on war, politics, the Armed Forces - today was a day to pay tribute to men and women who gave to their country and the payment was high. |
