I want to wish all of you here at LF a very pleasant and safe, MEMORIAL DAY WEEKEND!!
The problem with both your thread title and personal posting is that Memorial Day is not a happy occasion. It was a national holiday set aside for the memorance of those in uniform, whom lost their lives for America in causes for and about America beginning with the aftermath of the Great War between the North and the South in 1861. Of course, after WW2, all of this changed.
Since the Korean War up to today, Memorial Day is for the memorance of those whom lost their lives around the world for useless and cheap/petty wars created by a goddamned US government for no reason other than political subterfuge for a dumbed downed American society.
Exactly how do you celebrate 60 years of US meddling around the world creating the issues that have no solution that confront us today?
Yesterday, the US patriot Act was reaffirmed with even more incredible fascist tyranny sanctions towards Americans. Do you see America becoming more free or less free with each passing day based on the REAL sacrifices of others in uniform?

We still have it better than pretty much anyone on earth.
But to answer your question. We are definately becoming less free. I don't like it. I blame it mostly on democrats. But also liberal Republicans known as RINOS.

You are showing your relativism side of politics, a trait that I see in most posters. Basically, you have stated that you have no fundamental principles and that you are open to dialog that modifies the world around you just as long as you aren't living in a mudhut in Africa (or something like that).
Your point is meaningless as America digresses into meaningless obscurity because of your own considerations.

Really? Let us see now: Eisenhower got us into South Vietnam, GHBush got us into Iraq, GWBush got us into Afghanistan/IraqII. All useless wars.
Go get you a steak and enjoy it with the family.
You act as though there is a psychology of dying for your nation worthy of a tribute or celebration. Why do you think you are worthy to to toast an honour for American lives lost in wars between 1950 and today?
Eisenhower may have got us there but Kennedy screwed it up.
We were there for the oil and tire companies. Kennedy screwed it up by dying too soon. Johnson and his oil buddies are the ones you have the problem with.
