I especially like the "Waltons" touch at the very end.

I also like the juxtaposition of sacrifice and golf.

Wel, Ms. Smarty Pants Theologian, sacrifice does mean to make sacred, so...
Yes, indeed. Holding up the chance to support dad and play a bit of golf -- away from their families -- is every bit as much a sacrifice as American soldiers being separated from their families for 15 months at a stretch, in a hell-zone... repeatedly. If you're a Republican, I guess.
Talk about your overblown rhetoric. "Sacrifice"? Gag.
