Patriotic? Dang right. Stirring? More than I realized. Proud to be an American? Absolutely!Fox spent their last five minutes of the Super Bowl pregame show on Sunday -- using precious, expensive prime time minutes -- with a reciting of the Declaration of Independence to honor Americans who have died for this country over the past 200 years.
Those reciting included reenactors representing Ben Franklin and Thomas Jefferson ... NFL-related people including Peyton Manning ... service members ... everyday Americans ...
... and perhaps the most touching was the widow of NFL star Pat Tillman.
For those too young to remember, Pat Tillman joined the Army Rangers after 9/11 to defend the country he loved, leaving behind his NFL career with the Arizona Cardinals and a $3.5 million contract. Tragically killed at the age of 27 during the war in Afghanistan, he was a Patriot ... he was a hero.
Thank you, Fox Sports. We need to be reminded of who we are. Could you run that on a daily basis?
Thank you American heroes, wounded warriors, fallen warrios ... may God bless America.

HOW those people in Oklahoma City died...

The media and our government love to call it terrorism...
These are the same people that tell you that floride in your water and tooth paste is good for you.
I'm not telling you what to think, i'm just asking you to do your on REAL research and to wake up to what the government is doing.
