Remember Me?

After seeing the goings on this holiday weekend, I am reminded of just how lazy and apathetic we have become. I mean seriously, it's Memorial Day weekend and everywhere you look, people are out in force waving flags and all else that goes along with it. Here's my problem. How lazy and apathetic have we become that it takes a HOLIDAY to remember those who have served our country proudly and to those who paid the ULTIMATE sacrifice? Is the happenings going on in our daily lives THAT important that we can't seem to remember our Veterans? We have no problems pissing and moaning about dumbass things like our politicians lying to us, our dogs peeing on the carpet, and the like. Our Military only gets the thanks and attention when a holiday comes around or they slap a knot on some idiot's head (see Osama). It's because of the sacrifices our soldiers make that we can worry about the really small things in life. They deserve better.....end of story.
