Thanks for the ping!
Yes, someone needs to develop a conservative celebrity list so we will know who deserves our support. I am not talking just actors here. I want a list that covers actors, directors, producers, musicians, writers, publishers, sports figures, etc.. If a person is capable of getting national attention, then we need to know their values. And, a suggestion here, JimRob could keep a link to the list on FReeRepublics front page so everyone could have quick access to it.
Bartending I had heard, Manhattan, I dunno : )
Just did a little look around...he was born in Germany...
his father retired from the Army.
And Gary Sinise .. another FANTASTIC US Military supporter.
Ping!
So what will be their excuse when this sells BIG and their anti-military trash (like Jarhead) flops?
He's also cute. And very funny.
WHY
I had been looking for an opportunity to serve my country for a long time. I had mentioned to my friends that I wanted to volunteer as far back as the Gulf War to go into the military. My friends laughed at me and told me I was too old to join and the military wouldn't take me. I looked into it and they were right: I was too old. The idea of serving my country remained in my mind.
Over the past few years from varying sources -- Time Magazine, books, and television -- information began coming to my attention on Foster Care; its history and the current crisis of an antiquated system overburdened with 580,000 children who have no voice.
Children need to be protected by interstate technology systems that can track placements, education, medical records and protect these children from predators traveling from state to state.
I saw Foster Care as a way for me to serve my country in a system by which shining a little bit of light could benefit a great deal by helping kids who were literally wards of the Government.
I met with the Government in February and voiced my concerns for the current state of the Foster Care system. I expressed to them my desire not only to help these children get back to the families they need and want but also my desire to actively advocate for the domestic adoption of over 134,000 children who are now available to be adopted but who are living their childhoods in Foster Care. I had decided to become the National Spokesperson for Children in Foster Care. I hope this area of the site educates and informs.
NOW, THIS IS A MAN .. HURRY UP WITH THE MOVIE, BRUCE. WE'RE SALIVATING HERE ;).
I come from a long line of military veterans. My Dad served 20 years. My Grandfather was in WW1. Out of seven kids in my family five have served and I am still in. Supporting the troops should be a high priority on every true American's list. Without our troops we would be walked on day and night. Now if we can just control the liberals and get them to see the light.
that may explain some of it don't you think?
a regular non-elitist
Bruce's movie will be a blockbuster .. stunning even the most cynical Hollyweirdos...FReepers and America's heartland will see to it. You're the MAN, Bruce!!
They also have USO Care Package

"He was never called up, but I still can feel that hollow fear I felt as a little girl when I think of the children whose daddies - and mommies - are in Afghanistan, Kuwait, other places overseas and soon Iraq. Some of them won't come home. Others will sacrifice time with their families, big moments in their children's lives, and career advancement while they're called up as reservists to fight this war. I think it's important that we remember the lives the reservists leave behind, and encourage their employers to extend full salary - either in addition to or supplementing their military pay - and benefits to these soldiers so they and their families have one less worry in a scary time.
We've put together this LIST OF EMPLOYERS as a place to start; it's a dynamic thing, so please feel free to send us more where you have personal knowledge of their support for soldiers.
I encourage all of you to write emails of thanks to these employers and, if possible, patronize their businesses. Let them know you support their support of our troops. And pray that all the daddies and mommies, aunts and uncles, sons and daughters come home."
Wonderful .. I never knew all this time you were a military bride ;). Praise God he's home safe, and bless you both .. now enjoy what you've so richly earned.
Great work. He has, and always will be, one of my favorite celebrities.
