On behalf of all of us, 'You're welcome.' (Thank you ad from Iraqis)

Ramblings' Journal ^ | 7.1.04 | Michael King

[mhking]

The Iraq-America Freedom Alliance placed a full page ad in USA Today this morning, as a thank you to the United States for the sacrafices we have made to bring freedom to the streets and homes and lives of Iraq.

The sacrafices your sons and daughters made for our liberation will never be forgotten. Without those brave young men and women, this day might never have come.

Of course you won't hear about it in the mainstream media. It doesn't fit into their collective agenda of dragging down George W. Bush and his Administration. It doesn't fit into their agenda of belittling the fighting men and women who are working day in and day out to ensure that freedom, now planted, can take solid root.

But on behalf of the rest of us -- those of us who understand and believe in what our forces are doing there, I deliver a humble "You're welcome."

But we still won't hear about it from the alphabet networks or the "newspapers of record."

Just damn.

If you want on the list, FReepmail me. This IS a high-volume PING list...

[ICX]

I'm buying USA Today, framing that ad, and putting it on my wall.

[GVnana]

Maybe they should place this ad in the newspapers in Berlin and Paris while they're at it...

and add "Thanks for nothing" to France and Germany! :-]

[livius]

Thanks for posting! This was extremely touching - I hear they also presented a copy of the letter to the White House this morning.

[Conspiracy Guy]

We need to post this about every two hours, so no one misses it. I know some people get hung up on duplicate posts but I want to see this one over and over.

Thanks for posting it.

[Jaded]

Thanks cutie, it's an awesome ad!

[TomGuy]

and add "Thanks for nothing" to France and Germany! :-]

And add that they are suing the UN and France and Germany and Russia to get back the moneys stolen in the Food for Oil scam.

[Freebird Forever]

Well, I sure hope it's real, cuz it sure made my eyes water up!

Strange people were are...we give our blood and our treasures and all we ever want in return is a thank you, to be remembered and to see a people try to move forward.

God Bless President Bush, his Administration, our Mighty and Brave Troops, the Nations of the Willing and the USA.

[Dementon]

Someone really needs to post this on DU.

[Musket]

That's great! Thank you.

How about posting this near where "Fraud-n-hype 7-11" is playing? Or making a T-shirt out of it? Not for sale, just as a personal expression of support for the Iraqi people, as well as a big "Thank you" to our CIC and our troops.

[Sunshine Sister]

Amen to that. Add Russia and the UN while you are at it!

[humblegunner]

Thank you ping & bump.

[AngryJawa]

How about posting this near where "Fraud-n-hype 7-11" is playing?

How about plastering it right over the movie poster in the lobby - lots of them.

[mcshot]

Excellent post. It gave me a warm fuzzy for our CinC and our brave dedicated troops.

You forgot the tissue alert. This one has me all teared up.

[Victoria Delsoul]

Big bump to that!

[NavySEAL F-16]

This definitely will be sent to my e-mail list - especially the few Liberalskis who are on it....

Thank you - thank you - thank you, Michael !!!

(Okay, Finest Folks - I linked this to you over there, but why not boost this thread for mh ??!!!)

[Pegita]

Your idea is excellent ... I called my local grocery and they've set aside several copies of the newspaper. This Thank-You To America should be in every home, for we've all been touched by the plight of the Iraqi people. To look at their words and their faces is to thank God for answered prayer ...

[Serb5150]

Awesome!

[upier]

Looking at your tag line, I thought I heard that in 30 years he has not introduced a single bill. Is that correct?

Freeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeedoooooooooooooooom!!

[jwfiv]

Makes my heart burst with pride.

But, all it gives the Lefties is heartburn

[mhking]

Double check that it's definitely in today's paper - it's possible that it may be in tomorrow's (or even yesterday's) instead.j But I think that is a fantastic idea!

[Pegita]

Can anyone confirm today's date for the Thank You? I won't be able to do that until tomorrow ...

[Publius6961]

BUMP!

[TomGuy]

None that I've heard of. In fact, in one of his political ads, he touts his Viet Nam record, his prosecutorial service (that had to be short) and his casting the deciding vote for Clinton's Economics Package (Jobs Creation) bill (1993).

Just one problem: The Jobs bill WAS held up by a Senator who wanted certain perks. He refused to vote until he got his perk. Then he cast the deciding vote and the bill passed. Trouble is, it was Bob KerrEy who held up the vote and eventually did cast the deciding vote; not John Kerry. Jacquestrap must have forgotten that he isn't Bob.

I noticed one of the sponsors was the American Islamic Congress. Where is CAIR? Maybe CAIR misses Saddam.

[The Bandit]

This is sure to enrage Teddy and American Liberals.

[Letitring]

Awesome post. Thank you.
