Found this and wanted to share.

I went searching the web for interesting new blinkies and found this beautiful poem. I just wanted to share it with all of you.





It Has Always Been the Soldier”

It is the soldier,

not the President who gives us democracy.

It is the soldier,

not the Congress who takes care of us.

It is the soldier,

not the Reporter who has given us Freedom of the Press.

It is the soldier,

not the Poet who has given us Freedom of Speech.

It is the soldier,

not the campus Organizer who has given us the

Freedom to Demonstrate.

It is the soldier,

who salutes the flag:

who serves beneath the flag,

and whose coffin is draped by the flag

that allows the Protester to burn the flag.
