PURPLE HEART'S FINAL BEAT: A SOLDIER SUICIDE STORY

Never in my 80 years on this planet have I seen a country and mainstream media so totally disinterested in what is happening to our brave young Americans who are going to Iraq and Afghanistan to supposedly fight for our freedom.

Thousands come with PTSD (Post Traumatic Stress Disorder) and seldom get the proper treatment and many of them end up taking their lives.

This video is just such a story.

I can no longer watch cable news because all it is a bunch of whiners and moaners who never served a day in the military talking about politics as if this was the most important story of the day.

Ask yourself this question. When was the last time you saw anything on TV about the wars in Afghanistan and Iraq? When have you seen a story about our wounded vets returning with severe cases of PTSD?

Probably never.

Instead, we have a bunch of blabbermouths (Bill O'Reilly, Sean Hannity, Glenn Beck, Neil Cavuto, Joe Scarborough and Rush Limbaugh) who were too chicken to serve in the military prattling on and on over petty differences in politics while two wars are raging 8,000 miles away with close to 300,000 young Americans deployed to the war zones.

The media should be ashamed of themselves.

That is why I started this blog two years ago and now I average over 1,000 "hits" a day and in just two years over 400,000 REAL AMERICANS have taken the time to log on my blog.

The sad story of what is happening to our young veterans is summed up in this remarkable and touching video.

This is what the media should be reporting on instead of their childish ranting about politics.
