Can you believe that Spring is officially here and that summer is right around the corner. I 'm talking about sun and more sun and we are super excited. The summer for us means vacations and enjoying life in general. Memorial Day is just a few days away and we 're super excited. Being a military family we not only support our troops but we also honor those that made the ultimate sacrifice so that we could be free today. We usually celebrate our day with a BBQ and end it by watching the fireworks. Living close to an military base, we get to experience first hand all their activities and we try and attend when we can. If you 're like me you might have already gone ahead and found the perfect outfit for your children for that day.

Address is its inaugurating document, it is not a tradition separate from liberty, but simply the means of defending the first tradition. Moreover, one of McDougall’s main purposes throughout is to show that unilateralism was not isolationism, which in fact never existed. “Our vaunted tradition of ‘isolationism,’” he states, “is no tradition at all, but a dirty word that interventionists, especially since Pearl Harbor, hurl at anyone who questions their policies” (p. 40). That the term functions as a smear (and a proven method of forestalling debate) is true enough. But it is hard to see how Washington’s doctrine can be equated with McDougall’s unilateralism.

Like many of you, I had the unfortunate experience of watching a video of Frederick Stanley Jones delivering a speech on Memorial Day filled with hate-filled rhetoric. After carefully rewatching and reflecting on Stan Jones' troubling words and many people asking me my thoughts, I feel compelled to respond and hope someone can share my message with him. On a day meant to honor and remember the brave men and women who have selflessly served our great nation, many veterans, elected officials, and members of the public were presented with a speech that, instead of uniting us in gratitude and reverence, had the opposite effect. Instead of a day where we set aside our differences and come together to pay tribute to those who made the ultimate
