Thanksgiving Bump
Thankful for a nation of liberty where these injuctices can be aired and provided the opportunity for the redress that they deserve. In most places in the world that would not be the case.
Thankful for the Hand of Providence that still watches over this blessed land despite the difficulties we face, and despite those among us who would destroy the very fabric and foundation of morality it is based upon,
Thankful to live in the most propserous, healthiest, most giving nation on earth where each of us still has the opportunity to make of ourselves whatever it is we choose.
Thankful for the heroes among us, like these Marines, who have sacrificed so much for our blessings of liberty.
Thankful for family and friends who stand with us through thick and thin and bless our lives each day.
...and most of all, thankful for a merciful Savior who has Himself paid the price to heal and be the balm and salve to whatever wounds we suffer in this life...wherever we are, whoever we are, if we will but turn to Him.
As we give thanks this day, please consider taking a moment to lend your support to the Haditha Marines at the links above.
These men and their families need the support of patriots who are willing to step up, open their wallets, and give.
To the many members of the Haditha Marine Ping List, and to the readers of Defend Our Marines, I hope this will be a very blessed Thanksgiving. Thank you for your support and for caring!
Put your wishbone to use. Justice is taking too long.
Thank you Haditha Marines and to their families, not only on this day.
Oh dear God,
Please give mercy to them all, and bless them with peace regardless of these trying times, and horrible circumstances!
Amen, Red Rover.
bump and Happy Thanksgiving to all! We all have so much to be thankful for. Thank you to all the veterans of years past and those in danger’s way now. May God bring peace and joy to our beloved Haditha Marines and their families this Thanksgiving day.
Amen to all that, Jeff! Happy Thanksgiving!
Great to see you, Gitmo. Have a blessed Thanksgiving!
"It’s clear that Rep Murtha made these statements surrounding the mid-term elections and his zeal for a leadership position in the House based upon his correct belief that the Democrats were going to take control of the House for many reasons not least of which was the war at the time," Rooney says."Once we exonerate Lt. Col. Chessani in the criminal realm, we will address possible civil remedies against Congressman Murtha (and possibly others) for his statements in regards to the Marines and their officers in Haditha ("cold blooded murder" and "cover-up"). The civil process can be long. There is also a two-year statute of limitations on filing it so we have to be mindful of that as well," Rooney adds. "First things first though. Rep Murtha will also be a witness (if we can get him there) in the court-martial in our unlawful command influence motions."
GOOD! The price of bringing Murtha before the bar of justice is steep. He is a powerful, influential politician who can call in lots of political markers to keep himself out of hot-water, Rooney acknowledges.
A very happy and blessed Thanksgiving to all.
Really?...I wonder how that happened.
Happy Thanksgiving to Our Marines
Wishbone outcome is in the bag. Happy Thanksgiving to you and all your shippies!
I’ll second your sentiments! Happy Thanksgiving, RDTF!
Murtha will be brought down. A happy thought for a Happy Thanksgiving, Star!
You too, Justie! Have a great Thanksgiving. We will prevail.
Thanx for the post RR.These men need our help.A while back i sent a money order to the TMLC.Not much,but what i could afford.If other Freepers could send $10 or $20 it would be a lot of help.These are good people fighting the good fight-while at the same time being defamed and slandered by the likes of Murtha....Note to RR:Sorry if this is a little off-topic,but I just ran across a website called Americasupportsyou.mil.They’ll forward messages to military personel in Iraq.
There have been so many leaks in this case it’s just appalling. But leaking the entire investigative report to Vanity Fair and the Washington Post is off the charts.
The leaker could have been an anti-Rumsfeld DoD official, a Murtha-minion in NCIS, or any number of Wasington weasels who put their own self ahead of their country.
