Remembrance Day

By BJ

The day the Great War ended 90 years ago, set aside to remember the fallen from all the wars, before and since.  For this year, a tune that, while more melancholy than I generally like, seems to fit the spirit.

[Angry at Assembly Member AM Peter Black's outrageous comments]

I am just shocked to read in the Wales on Sunday at the likes of Peter Black Welsh Assembly AM ripping into John McCain on his blog for the way he moves his arms. John McCain is a man who suffered greatly when he was shot down over Vietnam serving his country. If you read about the McCain family you will read about sacrifice and service to the United States of America. I read that John McCain’s father was at the signing of the Japanese surrender and died shortly thereafter. John McCain’s son is serving in Iraq. Whole generations of McCain’s have served and risked life and limb in service to their country … and there’s Peter Black ripping into McCain for the way he moves, for the way he uncomfortably supports his arms. Shame on you Peter Black.
