"DONT THAT BEAT ALL"
Not To Take Away From Mr Blog................................But This Is The Weekend In The USA..................... That Was Formally Called.............."Decoration Day"..........Until They Changed It To .................... "Memorial Day"Which Is For Everybody...Not Just The Fallen Veterans
But..I Have Some Gripes About This Holiday
Tomorrow...Being the Official Holiday........All The Politicians Will Be At All Of The State Veterans Cemeteries
They Will All...Each Take Their Turns.... Coming Up To The Temporary Podiums ....That Will Be Set Up Before The Crowds Of People
And Make Their Glorious Speeches....Praising The Fallen............... And All That Other Bull Shit That They Can Muster...That They Hope...Will Garner Them Those Crucial Votes... That They So Desire
Here......... At The.......... Rhode Island Veterans Cemetery?.....All Of What Ive Previously Said Will Happen
But..There Are Certain Things That Go On....364 Days A Year At This.... "Veterans Cemetery"
That Are So Wrong And Disrepectful To The Fallen Veterans
Correct Me If You Think Im Wrong
Yesterday..... And Today...Here In Rhode Islands Veterans Cemetery...Will Be Spent.... By Volunteers..... Doing Something At This So Called
"Veterans Cemetery"
They Will Be Placing Flags Over Every Veterans Grave For This Once A Year Occasion
It Seems to Me That...Especially........ At A............ "Veterans Cemetery?"
The Flags Should Be There 365 Days A Year...But This State Does Not Allow This
Yet...The Politicians.... Will Be Up There.... Telling Us About The Great Sacrifices The Fallen Have Given...For Our Freedom...But These Great Sacrifices...Made By These Fallen Veterans.... Arent Great Enough I Guess.... To Have A Flag Waving Above Them....... 365 Days A Year
Yet.... At Any Regular Cemetery?...The Veterans Buried There?
Their Flags Are Waving 365 Days A Year
When I Inquired About This?............I Was Told
("Its Too Expensive..... And Time Consuming ...To Have To Remove.... And Put Back These Flags
Before...And After..........Cutting The Grass")
Now........................"Dont That Beat All"
