THIS IS WHAT WE DO... WE'RE AMERICANS!

I came across something today that was released just before Thanksgiving. It is of Lt. Col. Oliver North giving a speech to the NRA. It is perhaps one of the most moving tributes to our brave men and women in harms' way that I have ever seen.

I am grateful to one of my listeners on 540 WFLA who - like many others - continues to exchange e-mail with me or to follow me on Facebook. For it is she who sent me this link this morning. She is not looking for praise. She does not wish me to name her. She merely wrote: "This is what we do... we're Americans."

It is interesting because it was an e- mail that she forwarded to me. And on the first forwaders (hopefully that's a word!) had this to say:

"This is a great video, have plenty of Kleenex on hand. This is one of the most moving and enlightening speeches that I have ever seen, give by one our own great Americans, Lt. Col. Oliver North. For those of you who lean a little left, watch the video and then do as you wish with it.

Sincerely,

Don Wiley
Former Marine Fighter Pilot

He is not joking. It is indeed one of the most moving speeches about our heroes that I have ever seen. Turn off all distractions while you watch it.
