The Real Heroes Of America
When I die, I want to die alongside the real heroes of America-the Marines and SEALS. The Marines and SEALS are the "real men"-they fight for the freedom that so many people don't seem to care about.
People in the Marines or SEALS aren't paid very much considering what they do. They put their lives on the line whenever they are needed. Instead, it's the gangster rappers and "professional athletes." Just look at Alex Rodriquez, who signed a 10-year 52 million contract with the Rangers recently.

Let's start paying the real heroes-real men-more. I know that men don't join the Marines or SEALS for the money, but they need more for what they do. I also know that millions of Americans don't vote, and then whine about who's elected, and that there are millions who suffer from the disease of liberalism, and therefore...
