Important people are going to say a lot of things today. Some of what they say will sway you, maybe cause you to vote one way or another. Meanwhile, thousands of miles away, because of what happened seven years ago, I guarantee these words will be spoken.
“I will support and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign and domestic…”
Hundreds of thousands of Sailors, Marines, Soldiers, Airmen and Coastguardsmen have been in uniform for less than seven years. If you have a way to contact them, if you know them, do it. Thank them for volunteering to fight the scum that attacked this nation. Show them you appreciate the courage it takes to raise their right hands at a time of war and to do it again because they feel they can still do more.
Politics mean nothing today. Patriotism and love of country mean everything.
Please, if only today, remember the families and the victims of 9/11. And remember Americans who felt the need to avenge them and protect the rest of us.

About Abel to Yzerman
Welcome to Abel to Yzerman, a Red Wing blog since 1977. No other site on the internet has better-researched, fact-laden and better prepared discussions than A2Y. Re-phrase: we do little research, find facts and stats highly overrated and claim little to no preparation. There are 19 readers of A2Y. No more, no less. All of them, except maybe one, are juvenile in nature. Reminding them of that in the comment section will only encourage them to prove that. Your suggestions and critiques are welcome: .(JavaScript must be enabled to view this email address)
