Hundreds of Bikini Models Look to Restore America’s "Fading Patriotism"

Six years after the start of combat operations in Iraq, one volunteer organization is still going strong, and looking to expand.

The Patriot Girls currently operate in 38 states, and hope to spread their unique brand of stars and stripes boosterism to all 50 states by the end of the year, as they train the spotlight on the sacrifices the troops and their families are making.

And how do they attract the spotlight? With their stars-and-stripes bikinis, of course.

"You need to look good in a bikini," says Patriot Girls founder Amy Vitale

According to The Patriot Girls spokesmodel, pro-wrestling diva Amy Vitale, the "American Flag bikini is the standard attire" and the some 200 girls do everything from posing for calendars to creating military-themed merchandise (like men’s and women’s swimwear, posters, and collectible dolls) to waitressing and washing cars in their red-white-and-blue swimsuits.

By promoting events like "Game Day at the Playboy Mansion" for the Super Bowl, a model contest in the Dominican Republic for Spring Break, and an "Official Ring Girls for the WPAL National Golden Glove Championship" in Pennsylvania, the teams of young hotties raise money for soldiers and their families, with funds going to foundations such as Wounded Warrior Project and Operation Troop Appreciation.

[Northern Yankee]

Always like those patriotic pictures.

[hoagy62]

Sweet Mother of Abraham Lincoln...Thank GOD I live in America!

[KevinDavis]

I think Ben Franklin would have loved this..

[bitterohiogunclinger]

Viva New Mexico. But what's up with Tennessee?

[chuck_the_tv_out]

1st: florida
2nd: alabama
3rd: north carolina
4th: new mexico (just because of the gun)

[Loud Mime]

Although I do not care for the pose or the quality of the photography, I vote for the little lady from Alabama.

[nathanbedford]

My wife says they are all guilty.

[Loud Mime]

4th: new mexico (just because of the gun)

Yours or hers? ;^)

[chuck_the_tv_out]

“The IRS collectes $1 trillion in taxes each year. Why not forgive all taxes for a year? Stimulus!”

because you’d get used to it

[Terry Mross]

Ahh, Sweet Home Alabama! And I’m from Texas.

[Lonesome in Massachussets]

Almost heaven, West Virginia...

For the [not] the first time in my life, I’m proud of my country.

[grey_whiskers]

already posted.

From http://www.thepatriotgirls.com and "drilling down" (har!)

...and my personal favorite, from Minnesota:

That's a larger-busted picture of my wife when we were young...

At least as I saw her.

Cheers! Cheers!

[incredulous joe]

Sadly, I am afraid that I have reached the age where I am “too old to vote” for most of those fine, young patriots.

[downwdims]

Beat me to the ping qft

[central_va]

Excuse me, but there are 57 states in the union....More pictures needed.

[wolfcreek]

Must be a shortage of non-slutty looking models these days.

[Stoat]

Darn it!  Fox news changed the title of the article so it didn't come up in my pre-post search.  :-(

[raybbr]

Ummmm..... Is she wearing an invisible flag?

[mountn man]

The problem with this thread is, not enough pictures.

WE NEED MORE PICTURES :)

[mainepatsfan]

My favorite Franklin line from the John Adams mini series occurs when he comes across some young French beauties:

“Oh to be seventy again.”

[neocon1984]

You forgot my home state (Wisconsin). She’s waaaay above the norm for Wisconsin women.

I thought the sexiest one was South Carolina. She seems a little more mature and spicy than the rest.

It’s in the eye of the beholder.

[grey_whiskers]

Sadly, I am afraid that I have reached the age where I am “too old to vote” for most of those fine, young patriots.

Are you saying you suffer from electile dysfunction?

Cheers!

[PurpleMan]

As I said on the other thread...

As I recall, there was much wailing and gnashing of teeth over Olympic athletes draping the flag over themselves and using it as a prop.

Nothing like intellectual consistency, and this is nothing like it.

BTW: All MISSOURI’s have big “guns”.

[rman04554]

Only one blue state...not a surprise...right wing girls are much hotter and than lesbo-frigid Blue State “women”

[drjimmy]

This is my rifle, this is my gun...

[freeplancer]

I like the chick from PA. We need more sexy modesty in this world.

[drjimmy]

Only one blue state...not a surprise...right wing girls are much hotter and than lesbo-frigid Blue State “women”

I'm afraid that staring at those pictures has clouded your math abilities or your memory (though I can understand why you would want to forget that several states flipped from red to blue in the 2008 election). There are five Blue Staters among the bikini babes.

[MuttTheHoople]

Any libs lurking over here will counter with THEIR beauties:

[Daffynition]

After 9-11, I always enjoyed this popular image of patriotism......

[pelican001]

Miss Tennessee was not wearing any patriotic garb, but in her case who cares?

[IrishPennant]

Ahhhh....Girls, patriotism, bikinis

[70th Division]

I have never seen such a collection of lovely NOT GUILTY girls in my life. LOL

[Chode]

w00t!!!

[Loud Mime]

LOL.....amid other giggles

[Loud Mime]

Is it true that she (Raquel) got her start as a weather girl?

[Slings and Arrows]

They ran it up the flagpole, and everybody saluted!

[MissouriConservative]

Both Missouri gals make me proud to be a Missourian...sigh

[Harmless Teddy Bear]

Really don't care for flags being used as clothing.

It smacks of disrespect.

The girl from Tennessee does it right

[chuck_the_tv_out]

see now I know that’s not true.

God Bless America!!!

[Stoat]

Both Missouri gals make me proud to be a Missourian...sigh

It's easy to see how they would  :-)  In addition to their Patriotic sentiments and their jaw-dropping physical attributes, they are both giving lovely smiles, something which most of the other girls featured in the Fox News article don't seem to want to do in their photos.  They are delivering Missouri Friendliness, which rounds out the package quite nicely  :-)

[neocon1984]

Thanks.

They are also waaay above the norm.

[Stoat]

Thank you very much for pinging your list  :-)

 

[WakeUpAndVote]

WHY DID YOU HAVE TO GO AND DO THAT!

[Slings and Arrows]

You’re welcome.

[Stoat]

On Saturday [August 13, 2005], actress Raquel Welch will be honored by the Vietnam Veterans of America for entertaining the troops with Bob Hope back in 1968.

Thank you so much for posting....I wasn't aware that she had received that award, which she of course richly deserves.

"America's Favorite Bombshell" ....no such thing as too many Raquel Welch photos, in my view  :-)
