No Better Country

As the title of this blog suggests, it is my belief that there is no better country in the world than the United States. Now, that's not to say that we're perfect. That is because we are made of individuals, and indiviuals are not perfect. However, here in the U. S., we have the framework set in place to allow each individual a shot at their dream.
Here at No Better Country, I plan to offer my views on the direction that this country is headed, and what can be done to keep this the Greatest Country on the Planet. I will admit upfront that my political leanings are to the right. But that should not stop others from submitting their thoughts to me in the comments section. I would appreciate input from anyone, because even if I don't agree with you, I like to exercise my brain in debate. I forces me to really think about why I believe the things that I do.
I would also like to take the time right now to personally thank the men and women in the Armed Forces who put thier lives on the line to ensure that we all get to keep our freedom. One of them is my brother, who's blog you should check out at Liberty Unlimited. Words alone cannot express the gratitude thatI feel toward these people.
And lastly, being a cop who works 60-80 hours a week, and having a family that I love to be with, I don't know how often I'll be here. However, you can bet that the next time I am screaming at the news about, say, an idiotic Supreme Court decision, I'll be expounding about it here. Until then, just remember that your Freedom is not Free.
