Watching, "Saving Private Ryan," now [View all]

The number of men who were killed right in the beginning landing on Omaha Beach was incredible. And it doesn't get much better. Tremendous heroism by patriots. Fighting fascists, fighting for democracy.

If those men could see what is going on in our country now, they would realize that the current government puts no value on those fine qualities, and would care less about them and their sacrifice. May even call them suckers and losers.

Makes me cry.
