Aloha Daze

Visit the “America Supports You” website, and support our troops. The following is what I sent, and I’m reposting it here, because I do support our troops.

Aloha from Honolulu!

Words seem insufficient to the cause for which you, our brave men and women, are doing for us everywhere. You represent the best that America has to offer.

It is not the politicians that meet and greet the people that are being assisted in the world. It’s you, our troops, that are the faces that are most seen, the voices that are most heard, the actions that are most appreciated, and the results that are most important. Yours are where the actual contact is made, when media refers to such general locations as “in Northern Iraq,” “somewhere in Afghanistan,” or any other faceless place.

As a single voice, and a conservative one at that, I speak as loudly as I can in this blue state of Hawaii. I write a political blog column highlighting stupid people and situations in politics. (There is, unfortunately, an abundance of things to write about, and often.) The support of our troops is truly one of my missions in my column, and I do so knowing that I enjoy the freedom of speech: something else that makes America the best country on this planet.

I cannot thank you enough for what you do. Do not believe the rhetoric that media outlets spout.

Know that you are supported! You are appreciated! And your efforts are respected!

Mahalo (thank you)! God bless! And stay safe!
