USO Canteen Freeper Style
War has come to our shores. It was committed on American soil. We have been able to live in Freedom only because of those who have fought in the past wars giving life, limb and all the sacrifices for us to live in Freedom and go about our day without fear.
On September 11, 2001, that comfort, that feeling of living in a land that would not be attacked ended.
William T. Sherman said it succinctly, "War is hell."
The day has come for this Nation and its people to understand that there is a risk in losing its freedom, and in reality there always has been. We have ONLY stayed free because of the sacrifices of our military, our warriors.
This is about saving the future of America. Aristotle said, "We make war that we may live in peace."
We are seeing the American Flag flying at homes now more than ever in my lifetime. We are seeing the American Flag flying on vehicles and people wearing Flag pins and small Flags on their clothes. America is united in the cause for Freedom and for our country to WIN against the evil that came upon our land to kill and hurt us. To change our way of life and to destroy America which is US, you and me. To take away our precious Freedom.
This is the Freeper version of the USO Canteen. Where soldiers could come and feel a small part of being at home. It is a place where you that have family in the military can post a thought to a loved one that might be able to read it far away from home. A place where we that support our military can help support them, post to them, fun graphics showing the price in America and our troops. Poems, quotes, cartoons, or articles of how America is behind our troops.
Those in our military are our Nation's warriors. Let us join hands, fly our Flag and let the world know how important our warriors are to us....And that our MILITARY, our Warriors, are America's TRUE HEROS!
"No Marine was ever honored for what they received. Honor was the reward for what they gave." (Anonymous) CHIEF gave his all in many ways. He touched our lives and his friendship meant so much to all of us. He will live in our hearts forever, and his friendship will always be a bright and shining memory in our hearts and souls.

All Freepers needed to fight for our troops by helping to clean up VOA. Our tax-payer funded radio network is failing miserably to represent our nation in all its glory, freedom and faith to the outside world. They're turning down our President's requests not to play Taliban propaganda. We don't put up with that nonsense, especially during a time of war. Homefront war effort:
Our Inspector Clouseau PressE-mail VOA.
God bless our troops.

A grandmother was surprised by her 7 year old grandson one morning.
He had made her coffee.
She drank what was the worst cup of coffee in her life.
When she got to the bottom, there were three of those little green army men in the cup.
She said, "Honey, what are the army men doing in my coffee?"
Her grandson said, "Grandma, it says on TV- "The best part of waking up is soldiers in your cup!"
(BADDA-BING!)

Wow, Snow Bunny! Today's thread is WONDERFUL!!! One of your BEST!!!Thanks for mentioning Hugh. He talked briefly about your USO threads on his nationally syndicated radio show Tuesday, and may again today. I will be bumping this to my "Hugh Hewitt PING list" - next...
First, though, I am indexing this for the Hugh Hewitt bump_list.
If anyone finds ANY thread that may be of interest to Hugh Hewitt (or his listeners), just post a reply to "Hugh Hewitt," and THAT thread will be marked for retrieval, when that bump_list link is clicked.
(See also the OTHER interesting "bump_lists" on John Robinson's official "Free Republic Bump List Register.")

Busy day here, will come and play a little later. Thanks for the bump!
To: RonDog
That's one of my very favorite graphics to come out of this whole horrible tragedy, too. That and the photo of the flag-raising by the firemen, which I used as the background of my
Lady Liberty Weeps graphic.

"Yeah, yeah, yeah, I know we're really not that old..." Oh, yeah? I think I look quiet a bit like that old geezer on the dance floor!
LOL! Well, I've always thought we should die young as old as we can.

Billie, that picture I posted hangs on my wall.
I took a picture of the picture with my digital camera.
He and Tom Landry are my two all-time favorite heroes!
I've seen "True Grit" so many times I can tell you what every character is going to say.

"To ALL: I would like to personally thank each and everyone of you for your love of our country, support for our President and all you do to support our troops." I'm going to pretend that I said that!
And thanks for all you do, Tonkin.

RonDog,
please keep me ON the Hugh Hewitt ping list.
I don't get to hear him as much since he moved to the 3-6PM slot....but try to hear
as much as possible.
And I'm still thinking of what ways www.freerepublic.com should support/assist Counselor Hewitt.

Listening to new people on Milwaukee radio, I like Hugh Hewitt lots better than Glenn Beck. Beck is funny sometimes. Hewitt is funny *AND ADULT.*
