This is the reason I still have hope for America.

Worcester never expected the wreath-laying effort to grow from a single tractor-trailer carrying a few thousand wreaths to 84 big rigs delivering wreaths to Arlington and hundreds of locations. Besides the Arlington ceremony, his Wreaths Across America organization has organized more than 700 other ceremonies at veterans' cemeteries and monuments across the country and overseas involving 225,000 wreaths.

This is so moving. And, on another level, this is how economic stimulus really works, and the Obozo and his handmaidens will never understand it. 84 big rigs (work for the drivers), 225K wreaths (work for the wreath makers), and the time and talents donated by the many volunteers to make it all happen at the memorials (drinking coffee and eating lunches bought from another business) - all because this man was moved to honor our war dead and others joined in to support that effort. God bless them all.
