Red, White, & Blue
Toby Keith and Darryl Worley ignited our nation after 9/11 with their songs. Their sentiments captured resounded through every Americans’ heart. When the media stopped refreshing our memory of why the war in Afghanistan and Iraq was still being waged, our servicemen and women knew the answer. For those of us who did not want to become desensitized over time by what was in the past, always kept a vigil of truth burning inside so that we may never forget.
This week’s Music Moves Me theme is “Color or Weather related songs”. I don’t know about you, but I’m feeling a swell of patriotism and celebration after learning the news last night that Osama is finally dead.
This one is for all those who lost their lives in any act of terrorism before September 11th or on that horrible day, and since that time. This is for the brave young men and women serving across our world to make sure our freedom remains intact and crushing the evil threats to our nation.
This is America! We are Americans — red, white, and blue-blooded Americans!
I love this instrumental version of the above song and the vid is so moving!

Bow your head in prayer with me for our nation and for all those who faithfully serve us well. Let freedom roll!
God bless the USA!

Thank you for such a beautiful patriotic post. It swelled my heart with pride. I love all of these songs and think they are perfect for a tribute to the Seals and the Army soldiers who worked so hard to get this mission accomplished.
