A thought...

I wasn't born here.

Being raised in a 3rd world country (Costa Rica) I never realized how much opportunity life offers if you're in the right place.

I love Costa Rica and I'm proud of my heritage.. but I wouldn't give up the US for anything.

Consider this a virtual toast to all our brave men and women who risk their life everyday to keep this country free and to liberate others. This is not a debate thread and I do not care to hear your opinions on the Iraq war. Unless you've been there and risked your life, I don't wanna hear it.


Salud!

I think this belongs in the big debate forum ;)

God Bless the US!

Happy Birthday to my Homeland.

Happy Birthday to my Homeland.

...from Canada. JK, Jon! :)

Though Im about to sign up for my Canadian Citizenship (yes you have to know atleast Canadian Beers) I will always Pledge Allegiance to my United States.

Brother Jon,

No disrespect intended toward our neighbors to the North... but I will always consider you as a fellow American.

We'll leave the light on for ya. :)

Thanks my friend as I will always know my Home.
