Happy 230th
Today the Marines are 230 years old - story here - and we would like to take the time to say
TO ALL THE MARINES
PAST AND PRESENT
We salute you and appreciate what you have done to protect and serve this nation.
We decided to include this in Cao’s Friday Trackback party (link here) as a tribute for Veteren’s day.
Right on.

Yes, we here at the White House appreciate you so much that for the first time in 55 years we don’t care what you have to say on Veterans’ Day:
Think Progress brings us this on the Repubican controlled Congress’s Veteran’s Day tribute:
On Tuesday — three days before Veterans Day — House Veterans’ Affairs Committee Chairman Steve Buyer (R-IN) announced that for the first time in at least 55 years, “veterans service organizations will no longer have the opportunity to present testimony before a joint hearing of the House and Senate Veterans’ Affairs Committees.”
…The Disabled American Veterans, the “official voice of America’s service-connected disabled veterans,” just issued a scathing release calling the move “an insult to all who have fought, sacrificed and died to defend the Constitution.”
Sheesh.
