THE FINEST STATEMENT PRINTED TODAY



A mother asked President Bush, "Why did my son have to die in

Iraq?"



Another mother asked President Kennedy, "Why did my son have to die

in Viet Nam?"



Another mother asked President Truman, "Why did my son have to die

in Korea?


Another mother asked President F.D. Roosevelt, "Why did my son have

to die at Iwo Jima?"



Another mother asked President W. Wilson, "Why did my son have to

die on the battlefield of France?"



Yet another mother asked President Lincoln, "Why did my son have to

die at Gettysburg?"



And yet another mother asked President G. Washington, "Why did my

son has to die near Valley Forge?"



Then long, long ago, a mother asked... "Heavenly Father,
why did my

Son has to die on a cross outside of Jerusalem?"



The answers to all these are similar --



"So that others may have life and dwell in peace, happiness and

freedom."

Well, I must confess that I don't understand the idea behind the OP.

The events that are listed are simply too mismatched.

Some were more necessary for freedom than others.

So I guess I just don't get the point.

I confess to being thick.

My apologies. hug

So in other words, this thread is a subliminal plug for Hillary for president? laugh

wave

Oh please say it isn't so Alex!

I wouldn't mind seeing a women president but please not Hillary!

Are you a US citizen? Maybe you could run. You I'd vote for.

But I ain't vot'in for Hillary. scold

No honey. This thread is not subliminal anything. Now if someone wants to put a meaning that they see, then it's all good too.
But, what is so wrong with Hilary? She is family values all the way. Aaauunnd, she has worked very hard to get where she is at.
