This is a thank you to all those who have served or are serving now.
I’d like to send a special thanks to my cousins, Chuck and Susan, who are currently serving in the Marines and Navy stateside. Chuck has already done two tours in Iraq. Job well done.
If you have a relative currently serving, leave them a shout-out in the comments.
May all soldiers who fell in Iraq and Afghanistan be blessed and praised for giving the ultimate sacrifice. May our Lord be holding all in his arms, and bring peace and comfort to their families.

Can’t you just imagine Elijah taunting the 450 prophets of Baal with these song lyrics.
My God can beat up your god
My God has told me so
My God he is the true God
Watch out, he’ll lay yours low
Just in case you’re not familiar with the story, you can read it in 1 Kings 18:16-39.
I can’t believe the “Angry American” didn’t make this list. “What This World Needs Is a Few More Rednecks” should have made the list, also. I know those songs fit more into the country category, but they should still be on the list.
On first glance, rock ’n’ roll music isn’t very conservative. It doesn’t fare much better on second or third glance (or listen), either. Neil Young has a new song called “Let’s Impeach the President.” Last year, the Rolling Stones made news with “Sweet Neo Con,” another anti-Bush ditty. For conservatives who enjoy rock, it isn’t hard to agree with the opinion Johnny Cash expressed in “The One on the Right Is on the Left”: “Don’t go mixin’ politics with the folk songs of our land / Just work on harmony and diction / Play your banjo well / And if you have political convictions, keep them to yourself.” In other words: Shut up and sing.
Of course, these songs aren’t just conservative, some of them are also Libertarian. 
My favorite from this list, “Get Over It” from the Hell Freezes Over album by the Eagles.

This one is for all my friends in the town where I grew up.
A lifelong unchurched man suddenly develops a vague religious urge and decides to join a church — any church. So he sets out to find one.
His first stop is a Roman Catholic church where he asks what he has to do to join. The priest mentions diligent study and the affirmation of the Nicene and Apostles’ Creeds, then — just to see how much the man knows — asks him where Jesus was born.
“Pittsburgh,” he answers.
“Get out!” cries the shocked priest.
Next stop is a Southern Baptist church where the seeker is told he would have to learn Bible verses, swear belief in the Nicene and Apostles’ creeds, swear off booze, and be baptized (“By immersion, not just some sissy sprinklin’”). The Baptist preacher then, to see how much this man knows, asks him where Jesus was born.
“Philadelphia?” he asks tentatively (once bitten, twice shy).
“Get out, you heathen!” yells the preacher.
