All while posting this evening, I’ve been playing my “WE WERE SODLIERS” DVD once again, just for the CLARITY of it.
It is a privilege and a pleasure to have such warmth and closeness with those who seek and provide such CLARITY here on our http://www.Freerepublic.com Internet forum.
CLARITY, that if available to us long ago upon our return from the Vietnam War would have made all the difference on behalf of a then Free People’s fight to remain FREE ..far ..far away.
Thank you for your kindnesses...
...and for your CLARITY, do the dhue..!!

I have been reading the words of Hal Moore at http://www.lzxray.com/battle.htm. He was a great leader and I am sure it was an honor to serve with him. I was just watching some of the video there.
I am damn proud of all you men who served in Nam. I am ashamed of the people, media, and traitors who robbed our intrepid Troops of victory and the people of Vietnam of their freedom. I am truly sorry for that, but I am not responsible. I was born in 66.
All I can do today is fight the ideology here at home. And I will not waver, tire, falter, or fail our Troops. This is my promise to you Vets who served in Vietnam and our Troops fighting the WOT.

Miss Saigon’s CLARITY comes from her and her fellow countrymen’s so unnecessarily being forced long ago to horridly endure the:
“JOURNEY from the FALL”

Isn’t their simple LOVE of FREEDOM now THE Example for the rest of us to follow in a new time of war in a new century with our own FREEDOM directly at stake right here at home..?
Especially with some of the very people who did it to them so long ago now pushing hard in Congress to do it all over again to a FREE Iraqi People..?
NEVER ever AGAIN.

Anyway to get Moore to run for President?
I swear on all that’s holy one of the most defining moments of my life
-and there are many such moments-
was walking over that bridge, following those traitors, to see what they saw.
And I'm extremely thankful for that and for all the times in the past you've been there! I'm planning on coming again so please keep on the ping list. Concretebob, you don't seem to have me on your list :-(
P.S. I think that picture should win a Pulitizer--the first one I mean!
