Thoughts on Memorial Day

I think about how grateful we are as a nation for the sacrifices made by our military to protect and preserve our cherished liberties and wonderful way of life. I think about this a lot, and it seems these heartfelt sentiments are even better felt each Memorial Day.

Yesterday, I got an email from my friend General Wes Clark who was doing an event with Jill Biden for a non-partisan, non-profit group called Beyond Tribute that launched a campaign yesterday to convince stores to donate a portion of their holiday promotion proceeds to medical treatment and family support for our veterans.

I think this is one terrific idea. See more about it here.
