[Protect the Bill of Rights]

Now I am going to cry...

[Winstons Julia]

I find that I can’t even watch them. The very idea. I’ve never been military...my Dad was military civilian overseas and I did represent my country at an international school. I’m proud that I did an international baccalaureate and proud that my classmates voted me one of two people to speak at our graduation.

But it’s NOTHING NOTHING compared to what my dear nephew (and Godson) has sacrificed in the army. Two tours and two kids back home. The first one, he was doing convoys between Tikrit and Kirkuk...he is still uncomfortable when traffic stalls in America...(because the vehicles had to MOVE in Iraq or be targets)...

He also said despite the Democrats criticism early on that the vehicles weren’t armored enough...the armored ones couldn’t move as quickly. He said he’d rather be in a fast-moving not-as-armored vehicle...

It’s just interesting what you learn when someone you know is there. And my niece is going back again for VERY little pay compared to the danger. Because she believes in the cause...the American Red Cross does alot for soldiers.

I think of me....and I think of THEM and what they do and it makes me sad...

We stay home and we worry...and they go THERE for very little pay and they sacrifice and do not get the respect they deserve.

I’m proud of them...but I’m SAD for us...because so many do not realize the importance and sacrifice and nobility.

Oh well.

[Winstons Julia]

you know...I have never thanked you for your service...

You fought before I was born. You fought in a war, at the behest of your country...

And then your country turned on you.

Even though I wasn’t born, I read about that time and I am ashamed. Not ashamed that we were at war...ashamed that the nation turned against its own troops.

Read the post about my niece and nephew on this thread.

As I see Americans beginning to think they have no enemies and that any war is bad...I see Americans beginning to blame the people fighting,

Whatever I can do, wherever I can do it. Whatever I can say...whereever I have an opportunity to say it...

I will affirm the American Soldier.

Thank you.

Great garden!

My hubby has a compost pile and makes the compost (ick) tea in
the garage. He also adds worm...um...castings. He would LOVE
to talk to you! LOL!

We live in West Texas so our gardens don’t grow that well
even with help. It’s too hot a lot of the time...and WAY
too dry!

[swheats]

Thank you they’re working all of our patience.

[marstegreg]

Add me! add me! won’t be able to be on every day (making dinner!) but I love Beck...I’m in!

[Red_Devil 232]

Thank you for your kind thoughts. I read your post.

I am proud of my service and the experence I had. I don't think my life would have been complete if I had not joined the Marines.

It is so nice to see - at least so far - the citizens of this country understand what our young men and women serving today have to go through. Fox News does it best.

I post a Weekly Gardening thread here on FR. There is a lot of good info and advice from some very experienced gardeners on the thread. There are 4 Master Gardeners who post from time to time.

This time of year the posts are slowing down - the chat and advice continues. Just type in - weekly - into the FR search under keywords and all the threads will come up.

Here is last weeks (I post every Friday morning) Weekly Gardening Thread – 2009 Vol.22 – October 16

[Zalmon]

Did you notice the ad for Progressive Insurance during the first round of commercials?

I thought they were boycotting.

[Red_Devil 232]

Tell him to visit the gardening thread.

[NicNacPattyWac]

Here's our pups; they're Second Amendment supporters and never miss Beck's show! (as I hold my breath that I've entered this correctly)

[mware]

Oh they are precious.

All they need are the tartans.

[IrishPennant]

I think it works best in electronic form :) Sorry I slipped away from the thread...Had to finish some Halloween decorations for the kids...just finished my DVR of today's GB...Great show...lots of patriotism...including the Military Moms near the end.

I want to see what's behind the blue curtain!!!!!

Cute picture. I cannot help but be impressed by the dogs waiting patiently for their turn at a blessing. then the nightmare scenario of Bubba flashes into my mind. Over a hundred pounds of crazy black lab unable to control his eagerness, dashing toward the other dogs, cutting in line for a blessing. Oooooooo.

[mware]

Patsy is use to my parish priest.

I take Patsy to the rectory every Monday while a group of us volunteer to clean up the church.

My priest has 3 labs of his own. He suggested that I bring over my puppy so that she could get socialized with other pups. One is a black lab who kind of sounds like your Bubba.

[Palladin]

HH! The Beck Brigade.

Maybe he’ll invite them on his show.

He had a doggie on there today.

[mware]

Oh she is a Jack Russell???

She is a real beauty.

[mware]

I recognize that look on your puppy.

I think it is "I am sorry, I did not mean that."

[mware]

Never fails someone start talking about dog and everyone put photos of their pups on the thread.

I love it.

[who knows what evil?]

Or if he was in the BOR slot, haha.

FNC LOST 1 million viewers from O'Reilly to Hannity the other night...put Beck at 9, and FNC could GAIN 1 million viewers.
