The very best. He's given all he's got to serve us all, and what does he get in return? My gratitude and yours, those pieces of colored ribbon to wear on the clothes his country let him wear, and the scorn and derision of people that aren't worthy of shining his shoes.
I hate the people that smeared him so much, I wouldn't trust myself to be within arm's reach of them.
