I Am An American

I am an American -:- My Americans, what America is going through right now Is not about politics; or Democrats versus Republicans. It is an assault on the American way of life; because of What it stands for, freedom. This is not the time to Look away and not make waves. No this is the time To be informed, some Muslims like ISIA has said it is Their goal to get rid of our way of life. It is time to pray For God help and give us the wisdom to know what is needed To be done, not leave it to our children. This is what I Believe in: I am an American. I believe in God, family And country. I don’t have much to give, but I’ll share What I do have. I have been beaten down by politicians And liars. They have tried erase my identity and my pride. However, I’m an American, I was a soldier, I will salute my flag (The red white and blue.) honor and respect my Constitution for the right to be free; I will bow only To God and I will stand in for the truth. So no man can Ever take that away from me; the right to choose My region, my God and all men and women to be free And I will never turn my back to my country or God; I do swear. Steve L. Siegel February 10, 2016

I read in this a lot of common sense, and a lot of compassion, The America I know has a statue of liberty at the door, come in peace, and we open our arms, no matter who you are. Oh and thanks to Vets like you, I have news for the Politicians of today, America is GREAT. And it all of us that can make it even better! Cheers!
