Once upon a time, there was a dream And she shared her dreams with me Told me I was her king if she was my queen Seemed about right, my walking fantasy
Like a fairy tale told in all of its detail There is this hope that my heart knows That every moment shared is real From sunshine to the playful shadows
I cast my penny down the wishing well Wistfully believing the thoughts in my head Every line chimed with the ringing of my bell Remembering every word she ever said
Perhaps it is that some dreams do come true This is my prayer every time I think of us two And the cause behind the all that I've to do To make these moments a lifetime of me and you
Whispering into my pillow it seems late night Three words that mean more than all to me Wanting so much to wake up holding you tight When real becomes as beautiful as our fantasy

“Yesterday dozens of senators and congressmen walked down our lines taking photos, shaking our hands, and thanking us for our service. Within 24 hours, they had no further use for us and banished us to the corner of a parking garage. We feel incredibly betrayed.” – Anonymous Guardsman
While Schumer pandered a promise to get to the bottom of the National Guard being banished by the Democrats to parking lot encampment “if it was true” that they had been, former President Trump immediately offered them free rooms at the Trump Hotel, D.C. This then illustrates the difference between the Left denying truth even when a short cursory review of the internet yielded the above photograph and spitting in the face of our heroes who came to protect these ungrateful wretches. Why were they sent treated so poorly? Keep in mind that the parking garage had one restroom with two stalls and one power outlet in the entire space.
A Democratic Congressman was upset that one guardsman was not wearing a mask at a donut shop and responded back to his admonishment that the guardsman “Appreciates his freedom”. Word is that the guardsman in question had a lung condition not unlike my own. That means the suggested regulations do not apply to the guardsman in question. Don’t get me wrong. I wear a mask. I have almost zero immunity. The risk of wearing my mask is far less in my estimate than not wearing it for the convenience of breathing easier. The point is that the cowardly Democrats thought it was okay to punish 26,000 National Guardsmen provided by the governors of multiple states that were under no definite duty to protect them from any possible mayhem on Inauguration Day.
As a result, some of the states governors have recalled their forces. Those who remained in D.C. have allowed back into the capitol. I wonder why? No. I do not. Obviously, some smarter Democrats realized what a cold hearted, callous thing this was to do to those who put their bodies and lives on the line to serve their fellow Americans even when many of these do not agree with the election results. Duty and honor means everything to those on active duty and my fellow Veterans. How dare that they be treated in this manner. Unity? Wasn’t that the theme???? This despicable treatment of our men and women in our military will not be forgotten nor forgiven by this 100% service connected disabled military veteran. It is despicable.
Say this name, Representative Will Keating (D-MA). He is the beginning of this tragic set of events. Remember this name Will Keating (D-MA). Do not reelect this entitled, ungrateful wretch.
Critical race theory Has a death grip on America's legacy Turning politics into identity And causing division to loom in our history
Big Tech pushes its aggression Marking each day with a new transgression Neutering language to shape theory That offers nothing good and to the contrary
Critical theory rejects equality of opportunity For all of the something more which is incendiary Rejecting as it does America's true foundation And with it, all of the principles of our nation
This tool of proposed, radical change Destroys classical liberalism for something strange Frankfort's embrace of maddening Marxism And of the wanton and attendant pessimism
This weakens the bonds of needed public trust Deconstructing the best of America as they feel they must Acting as though we are the failure of world history As they insist on keeping company amidst abject misery

“When it comes to developing character strength, inner security and unique personal and interpersonal talents and skills in a child, no institution can or ever will compare with, or effectively substitute for, the home’s potential for positive influence.” – Stephen Covey
Coming together in community Fulfills our need for family Anxiousness brings rise to danger As to each other we have become strangers
Violence takes away from us all Destruction only brings pride's fall When we forget our relations We only bring sorrow to our nation
Praying for peace on our knees As children of God, we must act to please Joined together in prayer, it's God we embrace Asked in supplication, keeps the righteous in place
The arrogance that has stolen our land And we might seek in each other to stand The focus needed on the Lord's loving ways Keeping this in mind in all of our days
Challenging us to step up to greatness To run our race in its needed straightness Living our lives in decided reverence Brings us all to our needed perseverance
Trusting God to use us though we are ordinary In accomplishing His will into the extraordinary Doing what is right might have its costs But, if you have belief in God, you will never be lost

“As to the evil which results from a censorship, it is impossible to measure it, for it is impossible to tell where it ends.” – Jeremy Bentham (1748-1832)
