Got this today; just had to pass it on

[Switch]

Minorities

We need to show more sympathy for these people.

* They travel miles in the heat.

* They risk their lives crossing a border.

* They don't get paid enough wages.

* They do jobs that others won't do or are afraid to do.

* They live in crowded conditions among a people who speak a different language.

* They rarely see their families, and they face adversity all day, every day.

 

I'm not talking about illegal Mexicans; I'm talking about OUR TROOPS!

Doesn't it seem strange that many Democrats and Republicans are willing to lavish all kinds of social benefits on illegals, but don't support our troops and are now threatening to defund them?

 

Please pass this on; this is worth the short time it takes to read it.

I have a lot of respect for our troops. They rock! They deserve more than they get - even if they get to play with the real toys.

The beginning pay scales, which are the ones in the sand pit, qualify the soldiers for food stamps. Prisoners have cable TV. I knew squids that couldn't afford it.

Very good points. God bless our troops past ,present, and future. :usa:
